Help with dating one last dress (for now anyway!)

Hi all

Could I get help with dating this lovely dress? It's an embroidered satin material with a back metal zipper.

Thanks and sorry for all my posts recently!

Pretty fabric! Looks 1950s to me.

Fantastic! Another vote for 50s.

It reminds me of the pink dress from Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (1953)

Me too, Melanie! I was thinking the bodice is very similar.

Thanks ladies I bought this one for me to wear to a ball/dinner later this year!

That is a beautiful gown, the back treatment is amazing! Would love to see the pic of you wearing it when you go to the ball later this year.
