Whipped Cream Fabric
Introduced in the 1950s this lovely fabric was said to be as light and fluffy as whipped cream - hence the name. The fabric has a subtle crepe appearance and was advertised as perfect to wear on the hottest of Summer days. Lightweight but not sheer the material was said to be crease resistant and required minimum or no ironing.
Comment
This stunning, eye-catching dress presents beautifully as can be seen by the accompanying photos. No major flaws that I can see - other than a very small area of fabric pull on the back skirt impossible to photograph and extremely hard to find or notice. No other damage, marks, holes, fading or bleeding to material. The dress is fresh and clean and ready to wear. Truly beautiful!! Shown with a crinoline for presentation purposes only.
