  • Acetate lining

  • Cap sleeve

  • Diamond front with gathering around bodice construction

  • Queen Anne neckline

  • Original belt

  • Lining has some spotting. Not noticeable with lace overlay

  • Side metal zip

  • Velvet trim

  • Drop waist with full skirt

  • Did feature a small row of tulle at the hem. Was heavily damaged, so I trimmed it off. Does not detract from the dress

  • Shoulders show damage. It is as if it hung on the same hanger for 70 years and the lace broke down.

This dress is so unique and FABULOUS. Has some problems, but it is so gorgeous I decided to put it on the website. If you are a true fan of vintage, you know sometimes things are not perfect…but we don’t typically mind! As long as it doesn't fall apart while you’re wearing the garment.
