Original 1950s Vintage Peach Textured Lace Wiggle Dress Size 10
A truly striking and unusual 1950s vintage dress in the softest peach tone, elevated by an incredible textured overlay that gives the entire piece a sculptural, almost couture feel. The fabric features intricate panels of lace layered beneath a raised, ribbon-like appliqué that forms swirling, organic patterns across the surface, creating a beautiful three-dimensional effect that catches the light and adds depth from every angle. Cut in a classic fitted silhouette with a gently defined empire line seam, this piece skims the body in that timeless mid-century way — elegant, flattering, and quietly dramatic. The high neckline and long sleeves balance the richly detailed fabric beautifully, giving it a refined, almost regal feel, while the clean lines keep it modern and wearable. The sleeves are finished with particularly special cuffs, designed with a sculptural pointed cutaway shape and fastened with a row of delicate fabric-covered buttons. This subtle but striking detail adds an extra layer of craftsmanship and interest, highlighting the level of design that has gone into the piece. Finished with a neat back zip fastening, the structure holds its shape well without stretch, maintaining that authentic vintage fit. With measurements of 36" bust, 28" waist and 36" hips, this would best suit a modern UK size 10, offering a neat, tailored fit true to its era. A rare and distinctive piece that feels both delicate and bold — perfect for special occasions, evening events, or anyone drawn to something a little different from the usual 50s styles. Style simply with understated heels to let the texture shine, or lean into its romantic side with soft waves and vintage-inspired accessories. In very good vintage condition with only light, age-appropriate signs of wear.

MEASURED & READY TO WEAR
Carefully measured, described and prepared — no surprises.
At My Vintage, we take time to carefully measure each item of vintage clothing so that you have the best chance of ensuring a good fit whenever you buy from us. We measure the clothing laid flat as the diagrams show below and for bust, chest, waist and hips we double the measurement. For example, if the waist measures 17" across when laid flat then this would equate to a 34" waist (17 x 2 = 34)
We use the measurements we collate to assign each item of vintage clothing with an approximate modern-day size. For example, a dress with a 34" bust, 28" waist and 34" hips would normally equate to a current UK size 10. The labels on vintage clothing can vary massively depending on country of origin and date of manufacture. Clothing sizes have changed over the years and from decade to decade we see alternative types of sizing as well as variations on the way measurements equate to dress sizes.
We always recommend that you double-check the measurements of the vintage clothing item you are interested in, ideally by measuring an item of clothing you already own and that fits well, and comparing these measurements. There can be variations due to the desired fit, shape and fabric of an item but our size guidelines are normally very accurate and take the stress out of buying vintage online.
