This rare, one-of-a-kind vintage 1950s ruffled tulle cupcake gown is so beautiful you might think it only exists in your dreams— it is a completely unique choice for a vintage bridal moment, or for any special occasion. The entire tulle dress is blanketed in delicate ruffles, each of which is trimmed in satin, allowing the design to really pop. Gloriously ruffled shoulders mirror this same effect. The bodice is fully lined and fitted, to offset the fullness of the skirt. The shoulder has a bit of hidden elastic, making the placement very secure— it's possible to wear this more off-the-shoulder, or properly sitting on the shoulder like a scoop-neck, as pictured here. The skirt is crafted of two layers to tulle, and there is a bit of flirty sheerness without being too sheer. It is pictured with an additional crinoline petticoat worn under; please contact me if you are interested in purchasing a vintage petticoat. I also love it with well-chosen briefs or vintage lingerie intentionally showing from under. It fastens with hooks down the front, echoing those coquettish lingerie-inspired details. NOTE: it is possible to wear this dress back-to-front, with the hook fastenings in the front, for a corset-like look. 

The Vintage Pearl Tassel Earrings pictured are also available.

Measurements: This will best fit a size X-Small, and can be let out in places to make it larger; please refer to the below measurements. 
Chest: 32" (keep in mind it's meant to have a corset-like bodice and suck you in)
Waist: 23.5" laid flat, perhaps up to 24" pulled taut (It could be made larger by moving the hook closures out, or taking out the princess seams and darts in the bodice; there is about 8.5" in fabric that could be let out of darts/seams, which makes it possible to make the waist somewhere between 23.5" and 32". It is possible to let the chest out as well.)
Hips are open
Length: 62" from shoulder to hem; 50" down center front

 

Great vintage condition, with minor wear commensurate with age. There have been some minor seam repairs made, and there is some very light, minor discoloration at the hem, as is to be expected with white dresses that have been worn. Overall, it presents beautifully and none of these minor notes are visible when worn. With any questions about the specific condition or size, please email [email protected] for additional photos or measurements, as all sales are final.

Beloved childhood classic for a reason
Format: Paperback
Not to give away my age, but I owned this book when I was younger and lent it to a friend and never got it back. I finally gave into my desire to own it again and purchased it from amazon. I'm so happy that I did. This book definitely holds up even after all these years. It's this kind of writing that helped me fall in love with the idea of being a writer. I've read some of Gail Carson Levine's other books and enjoyed them to varying degrees. I remember reading The Wish and thinking, even as a child, that it was incredibly bland. But Ella Enchanted is truly one of her gems. It is heartfelt and well-written with a truly wonderful heroine. Now that I'm older I do see more of the problems. The writing is a lot simpler than I remember but I suppose that it needs to be for the reading level of the target audience so I won't count that as a negative. As with most young adult novels, it is on the shorter side. This leads to some awkward pacing and a lack of development. There's not really enough of her friend Areida or her adventures. The romance with Char is underdeveloped though conveyed skillfully enough that by the end I was very invested in the outcome. The ending and epilogue after the dramatic conclusion also come across as a little rushed. Still, I think it's a wonderful story for young girls and a truly inspiring heroine for them to identify with. For older readers, it's a pleasant diversion. The strength of the story is Ella and the way Levine writes the scenes that are meant to have a big emotional impact. I understand when people say the story meanders a bit and how it could be boring for some people. Levine doesn't do a great job with descriptions despite the complexity of the world she's imagined. It's difficult to really picture anything in your head based on the descriptions she gives. She's not a world-builder like the big name fantasy writers. She's more interested in the characters and the main plot arc for the heroine. I would recommend this book for a reader or parent looking for a strong, believable female protagonist. It's not a great fantasy novel and it's a little underdeveloped but the individual scenes are well written and the emotion, lesson, and strong character arc are there. I'd also recommend getting the new version as there are great extras including information about the languages Levine developed for the various creatures in the world of Ella Enchanted. I don't remember these being included in the first edition.
