1950s Kramer Originals Jeweled Wiggle Dress 

 

 

 

 

 

A real show stopper, this curvaceous wiggle dress in a pale aqua jacquard is embellished across the bodice with faux baroque pearls and prong set rhinestones. The effect looks like stardust sprinkled from heaven with the embellishment heaviest at the bodice, becoming more lightly cast as you move south toward the hip. The v neck is entirely rimmed with pearls, and a narrow belt with a rhinestone buckle rings the nipped waist, with a couple of narrow tucks over the hip pockets. It has a modified cap sleeve, a side zip closure and is unlined.  The only issues to note are that some of the pearls have a bit of rust at the shank where it attaches to the fabric, and the belt is a shade or two lighter than the dress and the rhinestone buckle is not original. All said, it's a gorgeous dress and aside from the aforementioned issues, in excellent condition. The bust measures 39", waist 30", hip 38", length 38".  $245
