vintage dress

hello and welcome to my little shop of vintage gems!

this is a rare antique and very sweet handmade dress

Made around early to mid 1940's

Soft very light flower PRINT satin material with a subtle flower PRINT

Press-stud and hook side fastening, press-stud button cuffs, lightly shoulder padded with tailored bodice

The most amazing feature of the dress is the train which has flower cut outs and is weighted down by a small circular weight. This is for the train to keep it's shape...who knows maybe it is weighted by old coins! 

Long flowing skirt, press-stud button cuffs, back zip fastening...the buttons at the back do not function. They are decoration only

will fit a modern UK size 8 approx. Measures 17 inches armpit to armpit, 13 inches across waist, free hips, lengths are 54-90 inches

As with these antique dresses there are a few spot marks near the top shoulder, but overall and as you can see the dress is in amazing fresh vintage condition...a real survivor. 😍
