JULI LYNNE CHARLOT 1950's VINTAGE HALTER COCKTAIL DRESS - LAYERED LACE ORGANDY & TAFFETA - DIANE LANE HOLLYWOODLAND CONNECTION
50's vintage JULI LYNNE CHARLOT layered two piece halter party dress. Black lace sprinkled with sequins, rust organdy and black silk taffeta. Fitted halter top with sweetheart neckline. Boned at bust, sides & back. Black taffeta lining and facing at halter strap. Full circle skirt. Layered: sequined lace, organdy and silk taffeta. Lace is cut on the bias and mitered at center seams. Side pockets in pleats. Center back metal zip closure. When we purchased this dress from her neice we were told it was in Juli Lynne's personal wardrobe. It's certainly believable since Ms. Charlot enjoyed many parties in her 50's life!
A note about JLC: Years ago we were privileged to meet Ms. Charlot and can we say from personal experience: WHAT A GAL! We were fortunate not only to purchase a new/old store stock lot from her niece but also pieces that came from Juli Lynne's private collection. Some of these pieces will become available soon. But back to Juli Lynne... she was gorgeous, vibrant, funny and charming (see image below). We were enchanted by the stories she shared of her 1950's Hollywood experiences as an entrepreneur who also frequented the hottest night clubs of the era... she was quite the social butterfly back in the day. Having a vintage clothing business in West Hollywood for decades we met our share of celebrities, personalities and film icons. Juli Lynne remains a true stand out among them!
Hollywood connection: This dress was worn by Diane Lane in HOLLYWOODLAND (original title: Truth, Justice & the American Way), costarring Ben Affleck. The wardrober's tag will also be included with the purchase of the dress. (See attached photos.)
A wonderful party dress with a HUGE pedigree!!
