About MeThis ballerina-length evening dress is an example of the fashionable cut of the 1950s. It is covered in silver sequins which would glint and shine, and the layers of peach netting are an example of the popularity of using opaque fabric, such as chiffon and lace, to add volume, shape and texture to a dress.
