Stunning 1950's Betty Higgens dress in a fabulous and unexpected cut! Strapless style dress done in a lipstick red silk with the selvedge reading: Fou Wah Hong Kong which was a notable silk textile manufacturer. A wide swath of ivory cut out large scale lace is laid out asymmetrically across the whole dress. There is even a pellon interfacing just on that side to hold it up nicely. The lace panel is tacked at the top and loose below. Back metal zip. Unlined.
*Betty Higgins had several high end shops in the Honolulu area and at the Royal Hawaiian Hotel Shop. She was a contemporary of Pauline Lake and Tiana Pitelle.
