I've had this gorgeous 1940s dress in my personal collection for many years. The person before me also had it in her collection for a long time. Rare dresses like this don't come up very often.
This little piece of history features:
- Divine black floral print on a pink background
- Rayon fabric
- Flattering style
- Fine pleated detail on bodice and skirt
- Fitted bodice and flared skirt
- Short sleeves
- Side buttons inside seam
- Shoulder pads
- Remains of the edge of a label!
Very good hotsell vintage condition, but with some small issues. Some seams need securing (see last photo). a button missing on side of dress; If you look closely you can find small old mends on the pleat detail just below waist.
Measurements:
Bust: 34" (86 cm)
Waist: 26" (66 cm)
Shoulder to hem: 43" (109 cm)
