![Original 1940's Kay Carter Black Crepe Floral Studded Cocktail Dress - Bust 36](http://1940sstyleforyou.co.uk/cdn/shop/files/3DEA071A-50B3-47C6-B377-9D8CD8D558BB_{width}x.jpg?v=1706525740)
This stunning piece was made in the 1940's and carries the Kay Carter label in the back neck.
Made from black crepe, which has a beautiful drape, it is a gorgeous piece which is much better in person than in the photos - as so often happens with black garments.
A smooth fitting bodice with three quarter length sleeves, it has a sweetheart neckline and a hip skimming skirt featuring a front peplum. There is a zip on the back neck and another on the left side and the dress is finished off perfectly with a divine studded floral spray worked in green, pink and silver.
