This different version of
Evening Splendour #961 (1959-1964) is much harder to find because it was
made for only one year. It is essentially the same, except a different
fabric was used for the dress and coat and the purse is also a different
fabric.
When found, it is generally in good condition as the brocade fabric hold
up very well. The dress has a back zipper and the fur is the most
likely place to show wear.
The purse and the hanky are hard to find.
The hat is also hard to find in good condition with all of the pearls
intact.
