black basque waist dress Vintage 1950s Basque-Waist Little Black DressThis vintage 1950s basque waist cocktail dress looks exactly like a Little Black Dress Audrey Hepburn would have worn in the late 1950s. The cut is incredible, and a testament to how great design can turn something as simple as a little black dress into something so noteworthy. The neckline gives the vibe of Audrey Hepburn's iconic Givenchy dress in Breakfast at Tiffanys. The bodice is fitted, dipping down to a basque waist shape. What's really

This vintage 1950s basque-waist cocktail dress looks exactly like a Little Black Dress Audrey Hepburn would have worn in the late 1950s. The cut is incredible, and a testament to how great design can turn something as simple as a little black dress into something so noteworthy. The neckline gives the vibe of Audrey Hepburn's iconic Givenchy dress in Breakfast at Tiffanys.The bodice is fitted, dipping down to a basque-waist shape. What's really incredible is the pleating along the waistband that creates exaggerated volume at the hips, almost like a peplum. It also just so happens to make the waist look TINY. This is the EXACT silhouette that Vivienne Westwood has be reinterpreting for years and years (see below)— now is your chance to snag one of her references! Everything from the scoop neckline to the pleat detailing is so elegant. The pleated area at the hips is backed in Pellon interfacing to allow it to maintain its structure and volume. Note that it is miraculously quite bra-friendly.

Measurements: This will best fit a size X-Small and Small, depending on exact measurements. There is room to let out the waist/bodice and make larger. Please refer to below to be sure.
Chest: up to 36.5" (bra friendly)
Waist: 25.5-26"
Hips are free
Length: 40.5"

Comfortable Shoes Right Out of the Box
Size: 9, Color: Black
I bought these shoes for my husband. He has a very hard time finding quality, comfortable shoes. These shoes are just as comfortable as his New Balance. He uses them as a dress shoe and wears them at least once a week. There was no break in period necessary. They were comfortable right out of the box! The only thing we didn't like was the white sole color. Once I knew he was going to keep them, I used a black sharpie marker to color the soles black. Instant amazing, comfortable dress shoes. They were well worth the cost. If you or your SO needs a comfortable pair of shoes, we highly recommend them.

Paid for new, received used.
Size: 9.5 Wide, Color: Cognac, Size: 9.5 Wide, Color: Cognac
Arrived dirty as if someone whore it for more than a few days. Maybe I was mistaken, but I saw nothing about “previously used” on the Amazon page. Returned it. I would suggest that the company use quality control when it comes to shipping. The shoes seem find otherwise. I ordered 9.5 and it was just a bit tight. If I reorder I will go for size 10.
