Information from the Vintage Fashion Guild:
"Susan Small was a British ready-to-wear firm, founded in the early 1940s by Leslie Carr Jones. In 1947 Susan Small joined with other design firms such as Horrocks and Polly Peck to form the Model House Group. The purpose of this organization was to pool their resources to attract new buyers to combined shows. This became the Fashion House Group in 1958, with Leslie Carr Jones as its head."
This is a divine vintage Susan Small 1950's evening dress in rustling sapphire blue acetate, sure to turn heads at your prom or ball.
From the front, the dress has a stunning hourglass shape, with elegant thin double shoulder straps, straight neckline trimmed with tightly ruffled matching lace, and panelled design with tapered in waist and fabulous full skirt.
From the back, this beautiful dress is trimmed down the centre panel with tiers of ruffled lace to match the neckline, which taper out down the length of the skirt to the hem. A lace-trimmed bow adds a finishing touch.
Fastens at the back with a metal zip and is lined inside the skirt with a matching layer of nylon mesh.
Labelled "Susan Small model, dry clean with white spirit".
Fairytale gorgeousness, looks beautiful with pearly or silver gloves and glam sandals. A romantic and elegant example of the quality of fifties British fashion.
