I have this beautifull vintage dress, and I'm wondering what decade it comes from. Do you think it could be the 50's? That was my first idea. It hasn't got any labels, so I’m not convinced if it’s 1950s or younger? I have sure that the fabric is 100% silk. Any help appreciated!

Can you tell what the boning is made from? Weather it is plastic/metal etc? To my eye it does have more of a 50’s shape as opposed to the 50’s style dresses of the 80’s. Also, do you know what kind of silk it is? One of the close ups looks like silk satin? Is that the lining or the outer (shell) fabric? The other fabric looks stiffer to me, maybe a taffeta? It is hard for me to see though as zooming in on my mobile.
