Pretty in Pat Premo





Just in this week, a fabulous 1950's ivory cotton eye-let dress by California designer Pat Premo. I have been a fan of Pat Premo for some time now, her cotton dresses are some of the best I've seen. Pat Premo starting out working for another of my favorite vintage designers, Peggy Hunt in the 1930's. In the 40's she started her own line. Our Pat Premo is fully lined and features the most beautiful ruched waistline. I think it would make an excellent casual wedding dress. The dress is a size 2-4 and has a 25" waist.
