FLAPPER 1920s vintage SILK CHIFFON & LACE DRESS w/AMAZING SLEEVES

Description: Absolutely gorgeous 1920s Flapper vintage long sleeved dress (very Downton Abbey) created of a floaty sheer chocolate brown silk chiffon with sheer mocha coloured floral lace (a cotton lace) overtop a lightweight satiny bronze coloured silk lining (the fabrics feel like silk but there are no content labels). The dress slips on without any fastens and features a modified V neckline framed with lace (the stitchwork is beautiful), a large rear lace panel across the back, fabulous front cresent shaped seams (five in all) for tailored, two wide panels at the hips (to be used as tie backs or to flow around the dress - I showed both ways in the pics) and a swingy knee length skirt. The sleeves are amazing - tailored sheer chiffon with incredible wide cuffs of winged lace & decorative button detail. The dress slips on without any fastens. MEASUREMENTS: No labels - most likely custom made - the bust measures 36 inches (therefore fits a size 32 or 34 bust best), the waist measures 36 inches and the hips are 42 inches. The dress is 47 inches in length and the sleeves are 23 inches long. Please remember to leave room for you when determining fit - there is no stretch to the fabric or dress and no fastens to open, so you need to be able to wiggle in and out. CONDITION: Very slight wear ... this approximately a century old, the dress is in remarkable condition. There is slight fading to the underarms of the lining and I found one pinhole in the underarm. The fabric is strong - no dry rot or spliting. This dress has been well cared for. For something so delicate and antique, it is in very good to excellent condition. SHIPPING: USA - Free Shipping.

Vintage Clothing All of my items are vintage and therefore will have some minimal signs of wear consistent with their age (example - a loose thread). I describe my items as honestly and accurately as possible with both text and pictures - clearly noting any known larger imperfections (holes, stains, missing buttons, etc). If I have missed something, I apologize - please let me know and I will do my best to fix the issue. But please remember I am a human being. My preloved items have been freshly laundered unless otherwise noted in the description. The BRUCE WEIR(DO) note ... often, I buy lots of the same item (particularly lingerie items). After I sell one, I will often list another .... the Bruce point is that the second item is NOT the first item you purchased. There is more than one. About Me It is just me. Fashion and vintage clothing is a passion but I also have a full time job outside of ebay as well as a family. I try my best to answer all questions as quickly as possible but sometimes due to work, family commitments or a day away, a response may take longer. Thank you for your patience.
