Vintage Find - Hooray for Hips

After finally prying away from the images of the Dior couture show, I am torn between my obsession with anything 1920s and peplums of the 50s. Although this dress is not at all New Look as was seen at Dior, it does have the perfect length, crisp peplum that hugged hips on the runway. Granted, the peplums that Galliano created were more like body armor, and I actually loved the contrast of the ultra-feminine silhouette, but for real women, I think this green little gem is spot on.
