1950's Palest shell pink ballerina vintage ball gown.
Strapless, boned bodice of pale shell pink sain twill covered with matching net. The bodice is covered with embroidered strips of gathered net in a swirly Roccoco style design, studded with clear iridescent sequins, with silver bead centres. The front of the skirt is also covered with the scrolled design, punctuated with twinkling beads and sequins. There is another layer of netting underneath and an underskirt of matching satin twill.
This is a really special piece, we dont think it has ever been worn.
Again, stunning for a ball or to get married in.
