1940s 1960's LOVELY BLACK DRESS WITH LACE AND UNION MADE LABEL
WESTERN COSTUME COMPANY



WE SPECIALIZE IN OLDER VINTAGE MOVIE WARDROBE AND HAVE THOUSANDS OF REAL MOVIE WORN ITEMS IN CURRENT INVENTORY!


This is a Fabulous Vintage Dinner / Evening Dress we are offering. It is done in a lovely black crepe. The sleeves and yoke are done in a net lace with black piping sewn on in swirl patterns for texture. The net lace sleeves are actually a dark burgundy lace with the black piping over it. The bodice and sleeves are lined in a sheer buff material. The black dress underneath has a strapless sweetheart neckline as you can see in the picture. The gown fastens with a metal side zipper. It has a Western Costume Company label along with an INTERNATIONAL LADIES GARMENT WORKERS UNION label.
This lovely Dress measures approximately 15 1/2" across the back shoulders; a 38"/40" bust; 34" waist and is about 43" from the back neckline to the hem.

NOTE: Some of the piping has come unstitched and needs to be re-tacked; the side seams need to be re-stitched as there are a few areas where the stitching is gone - there are no tears - it is all on the seams. REMEMBER THAT THIS IS A REAL PIECE OF MOVIE HISTORY and WAS WORN IN MORE THAN ONE PRODUCTION! Please keep in mind the AGE of this dress! This is a beautiful collectable and needs to be seen to be appreciated.
All of us at Hollywood Movie Costumes feel very fortunate in being able to bring to auction this fine piece of Hollywood History. All of the items we are putting up for auction were used in the Movies, T.V. or Theater.
