Gorgeous 1950s Black Fringe Pin Up Cocktail Dress designer-issey-miyake The skirt is cut classicallyA really wonderful late forties, early fifties bombshell of a dress that is made of a inky black silk crepe that is then completely covered in tightly spaced rows of fringe! with little bows embroidered through the fabric. The fringed rows sit atop each other in a layered pattern from top to bottom and the movement this creates every time you move is just fabulous! The top is kept simple and sexy with tiny straps for the shoulders and a simple bodice.
