This lovely dress was made from a rich burgundy rayon velvet in the late 1970s / early 1980s. It was cut to resemble a 1930s style with beautiful gathered puff sleeves and a longer length skirt. A deep plunging V neckline marks the beginning of a line of four faceted buttons. Below the buttons is a short plastic zipper for easier access. Pleats at the waistline give a little volume and movement to the skirt. Interestingly, we think we may have photographed this piece back to front (the label is at the side of the deep V neckline) and it could equally be worn with the high neckline at the front for a more demure 1930s style look with a deep V back. Inside, the dress is lined in cotton and there is a maker’s label for Lanz as well as a label denoting size and fabric content. 

 

Bust: 34”

Waist: 26”

Hips: Free

Length: 45”

 

The dress is in very good condition, however there are some depressions to the pile of the velvet, which are only noticeable from certain angles.
