About the Item
Rendered in a classic silhouette, this original 1950's vintage Ceil Chapman dress, is the perfect Little black dress for your vintage wardrobe.
The v shaped neckline is framed by a simple shoulder line and full length inset sleeves, finished with concealed zips along each internal side of the cuffs. The fitted bodice, is accented by pleats, which radiate towards the central part of the waist seam, accenting the bust-line whilst drawing the eye to the fitted waist. The elegant skirt-line is accented by a central pleated panel, which drapes from the waistline along the length of the dress, joining the turned in hemline which features small gathered pleats along the length, completing this dress in a truly iconic Ceil Chapman silhouette. The silk jersey skims the silhouette, accenting the form fitting design of this piece. This dress is lined in black rayon.
