1950s Carlye Cream Cotton Knife Pleat Dress Fully_Beaded_dress peplum detail at the waistA classic example of good quality American day wear. We love this vintage label Carlye pieces just ooze refinement. This creamy beige cotton knife pleat dress has an elegant scoop neck augmented with 2 pearlescent buttons. These fasten on the shoulders and are purely decorative. There is an additional ochre coloured over stitched zig zag pattern on the neckline. The dress has an interesting and continuous arrangement of knife pleats both on the bodice
