A late 1950's pink chiffon evening dress with a matching bolero to turn it into a day dress. The dress fastens at the back with a metal zipper and is lined in pink nylon, the jacket fastens with buttons and is lined in the same nylon as well. The skirt is full enough to accommodate a crinoline petticoat and has a layer of netting built in as well.
The outfit is in good wearable condition. There are some little pulls in the fabric of the skirt as well as some very light brown age spots at the left back hip but all these get lost within the fullness of the skirt. The pink nylon lining on the dress and jacket has some faint fading to the underarms turning it pinky white (NOT yellow!) but this is not noticeable through the pink chiffon.
