This stunning dress was made in the 1940s from an off white silk with a bright red and black floral print. It was cut in the classic hourglass silhouette of the period with padded shoulders and a nipped waist. The notched lapel collar leads to four multi toned buttons that fasten the dress at the bust. The hip has been gathered and draped to create a sculptural shape and large inverted central pleats on the front and back of the skirt add wonderful movement. The dress fastens with an original metal side zipper and is unlined inside.
Bust: 38”
Waist: 28”
Hips: 38
Length: 46”
The dress is in good condition with only a few faint marks and some well executed repairs that are barely noticeable as pictured.
