1950s Anne Fogarty Midnight Blue Sateen Dress

button button who has got the button You have to run quickly to Petitgrain Boulangerie on Wilshire after work for croissants before a friend's house at 7. No time to go home and change clothes so start the day in a vintage Anne Fogarty deep midnight blue heavy cotton sateen dress and chucks and throw a pair of heels in your bag for later. Fogarty's dresses for Margot have that distinct "paper doll" silhouette because the sleeves are one with the bodice - no seams. But instead of looking like an overdressed kid from A Christmas Story, the fabrics are always fluid so the pleat gently when you raise and lower your arms. And speaking of lower, this one has a dripped waist and flared skirt. Sort of a 1920's nod. Zips in back, the front has along row of 15 decorative buttons. Bust measures 34", waist 27" and length 47". Excellent condition. $305.00
