New to the website is this classic little black dress, reminds me of Old Hollywood, so Audrey.
Vintage 1950s Black Surplice/ Crossover style dress S
This dress is done in a cotton / rayon blend. The style of the bodice has a surplice or crossover faux wrap front. Can be worn off the shoulders for a different look, very cute.There is a metal zipper on the back works fine, a pleated skirt and a wide skirt bottom. The sleeves are capped, there is no label or tag. It is made very well.The fabric is thin and has a ribbed crinkled look, but would look great layered with a crinoline or slip for fullness.
In good vintage condition- a small seam needs to be re-sewn under the arm and I did locate a hole on the shoulder, two easy repairs.

Here are some examples of this style from the 1950s and early 60s.
All have nipped waists and full skirts, so timeless.
