I don't think China was making Western fashions for export in the 1950s.

Here's one site that might be useful. Note the wedding dress price is
for "sample" dresses, so may not be very accurate.

Subject: [h-cost] Prices in 1957
Would anyone know of a resource for finding the prices of things in
1957? I'm not looking for a current value but what something would
have
cost in 1957. Specifically a cocktail length wedding dress??
My in-laws are having their 50th annv. in 2 weeks and the kids want to
prepare a card where the punchline is "50 years together, priceless".
They are trying to find the cost of typical wedding items from this
year
for the rest of the bit. For some reason they thought I would know
about the dress :).
