A chic 1950's cocktail dress in black silk taffeta.  Designed by Hannah Troy, the inventor of the petite size (To read more about Hannah Troy please click here).  Square neckline with gathers at the corners.  Two large taffeta bows with silver and black button centers.  3/4 length sleeves.  Dress has a fitted skirt with a gathered sarong style overskirt (attached).  Label reads, "Troy Petites by Hannah Troy."  String belt loops but no belt.

Size: 38" bust, 26" waist, 36-37" hips.  Approximately 43 1/2" from shoulder to hem.

Condition:  Has not been cleaned... could maybe use it just to freshen.  A pin head scrape and faint dust dot on front bodice.  Could use some stitching at neckline corners to tighten them a little.  Two pin holes at right underarm (looks like there was a tag, etc... there).  Tiny slit at both top and bottom of zipper placket.  Both underarm seams and the top zipper seam need small seam repairs.
