Original 1940s 40s Vintage Rayon Novelty Print Day Dress With Aqua Grosgrain Waistband

This stunning dress was made from rayon in the 1940s. It features a wonderfully vibrant abstract print in shades of turquoise, pink, orange, blue and white on a black background. The large dagger collar beautifully emphasises there neckline from which six transparent buttons run down to the waist. At the waist, a turquoise grosgrain waistband gives additional focus to the small cinches in waist. The skirt is soft and free flowing from the waist and features a large patch pocket on the right hip. The dress closes with an original metal side zipper and is unlined.  

Bust: 38” but should be worn blousy 

Waist: tight 26”

Hips: free

Length: 47”

The dress is in good condition, however there are two marks, one at the back of the waistband and one near the buttons. There are also a couple of tiny grazes as pictured and the press stud at the collar is missing its counterpart.
