This is a stunningly beautiful 50s vintage piece. Salmon pink taffeta, that has a finish that changes colors a bit in different light. Incredible fitted princess lines of the bodice and drop waist, then amazing looped pleating that leads to a huge skirt. There is 260 inches of fabric at the bottom of the skirt.
The condition remains excellent. No tears or pulls in the fabric. No odor.
I see one tiny streak of what looks like a dirt smudge, but it is buried in a fold, and may easily be removed. Sturdy metal zipper, and tulle netting under skirt. Open slit at simple neckline and also on capped sleeves. The top needs to be simple and fitted to go with this ornate skirt.
Approx. size 6-8, with bust 36, waist 26 at smallest point, and flaring hips.
Length from natural waist to hem is 34 inches.
Just beautiful.

The skirt part is the same black lace over black satin. The hemline is layers of satin, and tulle.

In mint condition. Mod 60s or 70s design, but with a bit of a Victorian flair. Jacket is fitted to the waist, then with large flaring ruffle. skirt is long and strait A line with open ruffle in the front.
would look great with off white go-go boots.
Both skirt and jacket marked URSULA OF SWITZERLAND 11/12, but I would guess it to fit more like a 6-8.
Jacket measurements: Bust 35-5. (fabric has some stretch and give.) Waist 27 at smallest part, then ruffle flares out. 17 inches across the shoulders with 23 inch long sleeves, with nice cuffs. The total jacket length is 23 inches, with 16 inches being from neckline to waist, and the other 7 inches the ruffle.

Skirt measurement: The skirt has a flat front and waistline. It seems as if the elastic at the waist has stretched out because it sits very low on my size 8 mannequin. In it's current state, the waist is 33 inches, and the hips are 36 inches if the waist is worn low, or 38 if the skirt waist is worn at the natural waist.
It would be very easy to have a zipper put in this skirt, and with waist darts, a perfect waist fit could be achieved. The total length of the skirt is 39 inches long.
The fabric is a wonderful mod pattern, and this set is very well made. Condition remains excellent.

Great 80s? vintage dress. Shoulders, neck and back made of black sheer netting, black velvet covers the bust, and the princess cut dress is black silk like fabric. Very flattering.
I am not sure of the vintage. It looks like 50s style, but the back zipper is plastic, dating it more recently, and the shorter- just above knee- length also indicates a more recent time period.
Approx. size 6-8, with bust 35, waist 28 and hips over 40 due to the flare in the princess seams. Length from shoulder to hem is 35 inches.
