One shoulder looks and floral prints are hot for spring. This 1950’s evening gown proves that some styles are timeless. It’s available from VFG member Vintage-a-peel.

In the era of rationing, cotton was cheap, durable and easy to work with.
This piece is a delightful example of their superb work and would be a terrific addition to any comprehensive collection. Horrockses really were the pioneers of cotton as an evening fabric, and the full length gowns - such as this - are extremely rare. I love the extraordinary feature of the single shoulder strap, met with a bow in the back and attached to an integral drape up from the skirt.
