Vintage 1950s mid-century pleated sleeveless dress in lemon yellow | Brûlée | { Rare Find }
We love us a vintage dress with good bones (structure) and simple colour tones that reminds us of the attention to details the working women and house-proud housewives of that era had.
Such exquisite pleats that have lasted till now!
A simple silhouette is enough to bring out the loveliness of this lemon-yellow colour and the simplicity of the brand tag has helped us placed it as mid-century.
Has some light stains (we have lighten them considerably when e we put it through the soak & hand-washing ritual a few times.
Has a matching talon metal zipper at the side. Comes a matching belt too!
