‘Portofino’ / ‘Sophia’1950s halterneck dress

This ingenious design from 1953 enables you to have two looks for the price of one as you can wear it as a classic halterneck or tie the straps in a bow at the front for a cute strapless dress. The bodice is boned for a superb fit and the circle skirt is full enough to wear with a petticoat for a more glamorous and statement look.

Price: £120 or £130 fully lined
