50s/60s Black Cocktail Dress With Low Back

This late 1950s or early 1960s Little Black Dress looks decidedly fresh and modern, but its construction is pure mid-century. Sleeveless bodice has wide ballet neckline, bust darts, and a slightly raised, banded waist. The back is extra gorgeous, with a flirty bow across the low scoop, and wide pleats at the skirt. Bow has hidden button and snap, skirt closes with a metal Talon zip and top hook&eye. The perfect LBD.  From the Susan K. Collection.
