1940's White Tea Length Pleated Dress

Late 40's early 50's simple and adorable vintage white dress that would make a perfect wedding dress. Acetate liner with a sheer chiffon ( probably rayon) overlay. Ruched bodice with sequined thin straps and the full flowy skirt has pleats. Side metal zipper. Glamorous, yet classic! It's too small for our mannequin so the fit is not the best in the photos. Maybe a good seamstress can add white fabric at the zipper?
