Woman on Ship Deck Wearing Short Sheath Dress with Cut-Out Design

Fred Greenhill

1960s

Woman on a ship deck wearing a sleeveless sheath dress by an unknown designer that features a belted waist, knee-length skirt with short side slits, and what appears to be a cut-out design at the center of the chest. The dress is worn with matching kitten heels, round sunglasses, hoop earrings, and what appears to be a cable knit sweater that the woman hangs on her left shoulder. Three men are also shown in the background wearing what appears to be sailor uniforms and a suit by an unknown designer. This image was presumably used for one of the many department store advertisements that were illustrated by Greenhill.
