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.

Manufacturer: LOPEZ-CAMACHO  

Beautiful dress. Made of rather shimmering floral fabric (taffeta?), with wide waist band that creates a very large bow in back that is attached like a tail. Sounds odd, but it works well with the dress. The waist band and bow are a shimmering greenish gold taffeta.
The skirt is very full, with one attached layer of linen lining, then a full length layer of tulle. I think the bottom of the skirt was originally gathered and attached to the bottom of the tulle layer in intervals to create a balloon like bottom. A few areas are still attached, but most have come out and need to be restitched. The only other issue I see is the need for snaps in back to hold the top of the bow up. One is present, but one is missing. Otherwise, this is an incredible 50s vintage piece.

Beautiful 1950s vintage halter dress, similar in style to what Marilyn Monroe wore in the famous street vent photo.
However, this dress has been through a great deal. When I found it, there was fading in the back of the skirt, so I dyed it black. It greatly decreased the visibility of the fading, but wreaked havoc on the seams. The fabric frayed at inside of seams, and some the the seams came apart. So....I took it to my tailor and begged her to try and repair it. She did. All the seams, including the hem has been resewn on sturdy fabric, so the dress is strong and wearable. Slight irregularity to back seam where it meets zipper, but all in all, it looks great. Other noted problems are that 9 of the 12 rhinestones are missing from the 3 front buttons, and the belt is missing.

I would approxamate this to be a size 6, with bust 35-36, waist 26, and full hips. The skirt is huge. Can be held out at ninety degrees from waist, and measures 200 inches around bottom. Measures 27 inches from waist to hem.
