Vintage 1950's | Suzy Perette Dress | New Look Dark Red Velvet Strapless | Couture Cocktail Dress
This vintage mid-1950's rich dark red velvet dress by legendary mid-century company Suzy Perette is clearly Dior and New Look inspired! With stunning workmanship and quality, this high-end piece is constructed from a heavy, luscious red velvet and features a flattering square neckline, fit and flare profile and an accented velvet bow!
Pair it with heels or ballet flats for a look that's classic and timeless, suitable for cocktails, a black-tie occasion, or debutante ball.
Suzy Perette was renowned for creating more affordable takes on Parisian couture designs beginning in the 50s in New York, using used high-quality fabrics and workmanship to create pieces in the style of Christian Dior's "New Look,". The head of the firm would often purchase the rights to incorporate certain notions of Dior designs into the company's pieces, making their clothing very similarly constructed, if not exact replications of the work of high-end designer fashion houses.
