Vintage ''50''s Black Taffets & Velvet Cocktail Dress

This gorgeous dress is in excellent condition. It belonged to a relative and I don''t think it was ever worn. Done is a classic black taffeta, it is detailed with black velvet bands on the skirt and a black velvet bodice highlighted with sparkly rhinestones. There is some ruching on the bodice and princess seams on the back. The skirt is a flared skirt and has a side zipper. There isn''t a label other than a size 9 tag. Measurements are approx. 26" waist, 36" bust and the skirt is about 32" from the waist to hem. The only flaw I can see is a light mark right at the waistline (see picture) that could be covered up with a nice belt. It does have belt loops but I don''t have the original belt. Please check all pictures as they are part of the description and let me know if you have any questions.
