Description - Cute beaded set from the late 40s or early 50s that includes a matching blouse and skirt. The blouse buttons up the back and has a beaded design across the front. The hem of the blouse is raw and just pinked which is fairly normal for the era. The skirt zips up the back. There are 2 front pockets. The flaps on the pockets have beading that matches the top.
The ad I found for Nini Originals beaded blouses is from 1952.
