A cocktail dress is a dress suitable at semi-formal occasions, sometimes called cocktail parties, usually in the late afternoon, and usually with accessories.
1950s cocktail dresses were much like the popular dress styles of the 1950s. They accentuated waists with the-bigger-the-better length or tea length skirts, as that was all women wanted to wear.
1950s cocktail dresses were made of silk, lace, tulle/net and decorated with flowers, beads, and embroidery.
