L'aiglon vintage XS light blue dress

Vintage 1950s Shirtwaist Dress by L'AIGLON: This dress is a great example of Dior's "New Look," which was ushered into fashion in 1947, and really went on to define the 1950s. The defined waist and full skirt are the epitome of femininity, and note the shirtwaist, which was also popularized by Dior during this era. This dress was made in the 1950s by American brand L'Aiglon. The skirt would have been worn with crinoline underneath for added fullness, but it has a great (yet wearable and modern) volume on its own. This darling number has a a knife pleat waist and A-Line shape, so flattering! Lovely Swiss Dot, and lace accents along the sleeves and at the bib of the dress in contrasting white or slightly ecru. Buttons down to the waist, and the cotton is just the softest of soft in the palest of blue. Although it has a thin feel, it still allows for full coverage. Excellent vintage condition, no pills stains or flaws of any kind are visible! Measurements taken flat: W: 13” H: Open (A-Line) C: 17” L: 42” SL: 22.5”
