DATING TO THE 1920’S
FASHIONED OF A BLACK SILK SATIN WITH THE TOP LINED IN A SILK CHIFFON AND A SILK CREPE THROUGH THE SKIRTING.
SURPRISINGLY NO LABEL FOUND. IN A BEAUTIFUL UNUSUAL VOIDED PATTERN OF BONSAI TREES AND PAGODAS WITH CLEAR BUGLE BEADS RUNNING AROUND COMPOSING THE PATTERN. AT THE BOTTOM OF THE TREES, THE BEADS GO FROM WHITE TO SILVER CENTERED WITH THE BEADING GOING TO BLACK AND SILVER AT THE TOP OF THE TAILS.
SCROLLING PATTERNED BEADING AROUND THE ARM HOLES AND NECKLINE. THE SKIRTING IS COVERED IN ROUNDED TAILS THAT ARE BACKED IN SILK CHIFFON AND ARE HEAVILY BEADED IN BLACK BUGLE BEADS IN ORNATE SCROLLING PATTERN. THE TAILS FALL FROM THE WAISTLINE AND FULLY COVER THE UNDER SKIRTING.
INNER GROSGRAIN BELTING HOOKS CLOSED AROUND THE WAIST AND AIDS IN SUPPORTING THE EXCEPTIONALLY HEAVY WEIGHT OF THIS DRESS.
CONDITION: SMALL TRACE BEAD LOSS MUST BE HUNTED FOR. THERE IS A LARGER LINE OF BLACK ABSENT BEADS ON ONE OF THE TAILS, HARD TO NOTE UNLESS HEAVILY EXAMINED.
THE INNER SILK CHIFFON TOP IS HEAVILY WORN BUT IS UNSEEN FROM THE EXTERIOR AND I PERSONALLY WOULD REMOVE.
WONDERFULLY STRONG AND WEARABLE. A BREATHTAKING AND BEAUTIFUL ANTIQUE FLAPPER DRESS.
