Blue Wren Vintage
1950s Ceil Chapman beige gold silk-cotton wiggle dress Size S
$205.00
CEIL CHAPMAN - feel like a goddess wearing this beautiful wiggle dress from the late 1950s. Ceil Chapman was known to be Marilyn Monroe's favourite designer and I could just imagine Marilyn wearing this dress with some glamorous heels, red lips and a killer smile. This beauty has her white label Ceil Chapman in tact and she also features a Neiman Marcus label.
This dress is immediately recognisable from this beautiful designer, I mean just look at that neckline! Amazing! This Ceil is not absolutely perfect, but if you have some basic sewing skills you can make these very small repairs and make her as good as new, but she is totally wearable as she is!
With a gorgeous draped neckline and capped sleeves, her bust area is soft and gentle and meets into a v at the back. Her bodice is boned to keep that effortless structure. She fastens to the back with a centre metal zip and hook and eye. The back of her skirt has a very slight flare, which is also very typical of this label as it combines form and function, it makes it easy to walk without needing a kick pleat.
BUST 36
WAIST 26
HIPS 39 (may be another inch here)
BODICE LENGTH 15
TOTAL LENGTH 40
HEM ALLOWANCE 2 1/2
Her flaws are very minor, she has some elastic loose on the underside of the shoulder area, this just needs tacking down! She has had a repair on the left underarm area, this is barely noticeable, you need to look carefully to see this. She also has a couple of teeth missing on her zipper but this still functions perfectly well. She has an orange coloured spot approx 1 inch diameter at the back of the skirt on the left side, this is also not obvious. She has been laundered and pressed but not stain treated.
