A truly stunning 1950's Suzy Perette dress! Done in a crisp white cotton with stripes of raised texture printed with geometric motifs and roses. Seamed bodice radiates down to the waist and skirt is pleated and very full. Matching belt has a bow and buckles in back. Back metal zipper. Bodice is fully lined in white cotton, skirt is unlined.
One newspaper reported: "The name Suzy Perette vividly suggests a small waisted little minx with a lot of Gallic bounce. The name was thought up by sheer chance at the Sidney Blauners' dinner table in Manhattan. The Blauners, their children and a french governess were talking about the new moderate price dress business. Asked for a typical french name, the governess came up with Suzy and then Pirouette which was switched to Perette."
