1950s Aqua Blue and Kelly Green Colour Block Sleeveless Full Skirt, by Toni Owen, 35in Bust
This is certainly a 'wow' dress! Eye-catching bright aqua blue and kelly green colour block dress with the most to-die-for silhouette, by American designer Toni Owen. Made for hot sunny days, this stunning frock needs a big petticoat to fully show off the fabric and your figure, with the nipped waist and tight bodice really giving you that fit and flare cut. The scooped neckline is the perfect dip to show off any jewels you choose to wear and is super flattering as it is not too low. The Fifth Avenue quality is clear; in the fabric, in the construction, and in the design, this truly is a 1950s classic.
