Prom dress....think it\'s a cusper?

Well, we have the poof of 50's, big skirt and such, but the crochet/aetz lace treatment I'd associate with 60's stuff.
Anyone have a date opinion on this prom dress?
Particulars: metal side zip, taffeta under dotted swiss netting, fitted big snap belt, maker's lot tag but no name or union tags.

1950's but I couldnt be more exact. Very pretty dress.

I'd say late 50s/early 60s based on the bodice design and from what I've seen in catalogs from the late 50s/early 60s. It's a darling dress! I just bought a purple prom dress from the late 50s/early 60s at an antique mall in Gurnee, Illinois. The tags are still on the dress!

Really cute dress! I agree with the cusper dating.... but would say more to the late 50s side of that with that little bow at the waist.
