During these frigid days I enjoy looking at pretty warm weather fashions. Mary McKnight, Miss America 1957 wearing dress from David Hart, a company that specialized in party wear. His designer was named Frank Perullo. This is definitely a vintage label to look for. All their dresses I've had were beautiful, feminine and very well made. #50sfashion #1950sfashions #unsungdesigners #vintagefashionphoto 1950s Fashion, Vintage Fashion, Ladylike Style, Frigid, Miss America, Warm Weather Fashion, Vintage Labels, 1950s Vintage, Wearing Dress
