50's Silver Butterfly and Floral Print Handmade Dress

Lovely handmade 1950's dress in a fit and flare style. Dark silver with a butterfly and flower print in light silver. There are also gold colored butterflies on this print - so unique and pretty! Accentuate the shape with a petticoat or crinoline underneath! Collar is black velvet. Gathers at the bottom of the collar will accommodate a number of cup sizes. Waist has gathers on the side and back. Side metal Talon zip closure. No tag to indicate fabric, but it feels like a polyester or other synthetic. There is NO stretch to this dress. Please note measurements carefully. This dress is in very good to excellent vintage condition! I could find no major holes, tears, stains or other issues.
