Vintage Lilli Diamond of California True Red Lace Cocktail Dress S/M

This was my Grandmother's dress and it is everything you think it is and MORE. It's the dress I said I would never sell and keep forever. But to be totally honest with myself I will never be thin enough to enjoy her and she deserves to be worn in ALL her glory! Original 1940-60s cold rayon cocktail masterpiece by “Lilli Diamond of California!”  Glorious double sash that castcades from the back down! Back metal zipper with hook and eye closure Slip with red lace overlay Lace sleeves with gathered hem Fitted midsection and nipped defined wasp waist Slim pencil skirt with pleats and a tiny slit in the back. True vintage. I doubt she was worn more than once. she is in pristine condition save for a tiny spot on the lower skift, see pictures.
