Gah! This dress is just gorgeous!
My favourite thing is that the lining (which is attached to the skirt and is a tank top that is separate from blousey velvet top) has its own zipper and is snug to the body while the velvet top has its own button closure which allows it to have this amazing 'tucked in' looking drape. It's kinda hard to describe but I took a picture and is really genius!
This 1930's dress features a slim skirt, with a blousey top and some velvet long loops at the waist. It's hard to photograph but there is a white trim along the neckline. The dress just has this immensely flattering shape. Perfect for a history lover but also so wearable and modern looking.
Size: XS
Bust: 34'' (lining sale measurement)
Waist: 25''
Hips: 36 1/2''
Length: 43''
Condition: Very good. I believe the rhinestone piece on the hip swag is not original 1930's but it matches very nicely and all the rhinestones are present. The dress overall is in very lovely condition for being around 80 years old; some slight wear in general and the inside of the white collar has a tiny bit of staining but nothing really noteworthy...
