Size: small

Condition: excellent

An absolutely gorgeous and ultra rare 1950's icy blue-gray sculpted silk gown by Anne Verdi of New York. The flawless nipped-waist hourglass silhouette with luxurious fabric has the sophisticated elegance the 1950's were known for. The construction clearly draws inspiration from Charles James and also resembles the iconic gown made by Edith Head that Grace Kelly wore to the 1955 Oscars. The fully-boned bodice has an alluring sweetheart pleated shelf-bust which is oh so flattering. The full-length ruched wiggle with dramatic over-skirt really finishes this masterpiece off with a perfect couture feel. I just love the pop of golden silk when the curved flaps move. This will be the gown you reach for anytime you want to feel like an 'Old Hollywood' starlet. Talk about an unforgettable red carpet or bridal look.
