Original 1950s black dress with gold and silver floral design.
This is a really pretty piece, which is much nicer in person than the photos show. Made from silk taffeta, it has a gold and silver design of what I think is flowers printed on it. The design is very slightly raised and has been applied to the fabric rather than being woven into it. The dress features a keyhole neckline, smart collar, covered buttons and pleated skirt. The perfect little black dress for a vintage lover's wardrobe.
