Classic 1950s "New Look" silhouette dress by Suzy Perette! The dress has a brilliant, full, circle skirt, fitted bodice, and sleeves that fall just above the elbow. The dress print is playful - a powder blue background of hatching lines underneath a spray of black and cornflower blue polkadots. Delightful!

Suzy Perette was an American company that licensed French designs and created them stateside, usually selling them at more reasonable costs. Their most famous pieces included Christian Dior’s “New Look” silhouette, featuring a cinched waist and full skirt. Suzy Perette was crucial in introducing American women to the marvels of French fashion, and doing so at an affordable cost that allowed the wearer’s to look like chic Parisiennes without having to go on a transatlantic trip!
