This lovely little ensemble was sold by Sears Roebuck & Co. and has their own label inside. A stream-lined and lovely sleeveless sheath dress with black embroidery on the bodice, with it’s own matching jacket, but in contrasts of black on white.
I have several dresses of this basic design and will show a couple more of them soon. It was a very practical and elegant style that could go almost anywhere. Think of how a little hat, nice bag and gloves would dress it up.
Now, imagine dressing like this every day . . . . . . .

Doesn’t this fit Stella perfectly? I think she’s a 1950’s vintage size 10, as is this lovely ensemble, Modern size XS.
Originally made by a California designer. Fully lined and with the nice tailoring you would expect. Here are the back buttons again, and a metal zipper right in the middle of the back waist. Pants with these fit very nicely. I wonder why they gave it up?
Don’t you love Fifties prints? DRUMS!!! How bizarre and fun. No pockets – just streamlined style. Love it that my vintage KEDS match it exactly!
