This neat little dress was made in the 1950's and is labelled Slimuette.
A classic wiggle design it is very close fitting and hugs in all the right places! Featuring a grosgrain waist sash and lace trim at the neck - which I believe someone has added themselves, it is a great little wardrobe staple for the vintage lover.
