This very rare maxi dress is circa 1940s. 

Made of stunning floral lace fabric. The fabric is rather heavy as for this delicate pattern which makes this dress sit nicely on hips.

Side fastening on small metal buttons.

There are two buttons on the shoulder straps, which suggest the dress is being worn with a slip.

This dress was visibly made by hand.

The upper hem is folded internally without stitching yet sits in place.

Overall, it is very good wearable condition for such an old piece of clothing. Small fabric wear on the bottom hem. No holes - everything has been carefully checked and repaired.

XS 

I couldn’t fit it on my mannequin as it wouldn’t go through shoulder width.

Length: 52"/132cm
