1955 Ceil Chapman Documented Steel-Blue Ruched Satin Fishtail Cocktail Dress

Such a seductive and timeless 1955 documented cocktail dress from the iconic Ceil Chapman designer label. Perfect for any upcoming party; you can't help but feel feminine in this beauty! The garment is fashioned from a stunning mid-weight lined steel blue silk satin fabric. The bodice has an exquisite slight off-shoulder scoopneck with classic short-sleeves. The complex ruching adds the perfect amount of depth and texture. A narrowing wiggle-skirt construction with back fishtail emphasizes a woman's seductive shape without adding any bulk or volume to the actual hips. Ceil Chapman is often said to be Marilyn Monroe's favorite designer and I can totally see why. This dress is flirty and elegant at the same time. Old Hollywood glamour at its best!
