IMPORTANT: PLEASE, please be sure to read ALL of the description especially the measurements and condition, and examine ALL the photos, BEFORE asking questions; and do be absolutely positive this piece will fit your requirements, as there are no refunds or returns. I'm a degreed and experienced textile scientist/antique garment restorer and seamstress, and I very, very carefully note any and all condition issues or repairs to every piece of antique/vintage clothing that I'm selling, so I can't stress enough that even if they're in pristine condition, remember they are all decades old and NOT new clothing, so if you desire modern perfection please don't purchase vintage! I don't do layaways or take offers, so please don't ask, thank you. Jewelry/accessories/props in photos are not included and not for sale.

I love antique and vintage clothing and have collected it for years, as well as having a longtime design career including doing costume & restoration work for major movie studios and museums....I've translated that love to my own contemporary creations as well as now offering some choice pieces of my extremely large collection of vintage and antique beauties!

Though marked a vintage M, please go by the measurements below. This is woven rayon and does not stretch.

Bust: dress measures 38", wearer should be no larger than 36-37"
Waist: dress measures 32" at widest unlaced width, wearer should be at least 1-2 inches smaller than that. Also, the waist has a laced corset style (see photo) at the back to make the waist fit more closely if desired.
Length on the hanger is 48" from shoulder to hem. Mannequin is approx. 5' 6" and a modern size 6, the dress fits very well on it; I feel this dress is most suited up to about a size 8/10, no larger.

Condition: Excellent vintage condition, no issues whatsoever that I can see; freshly cleaned and ready to wear. Buttons down the front.

Please make sure this will suit you as to measurements and style before you purchase; I don't do alterations or accept returns.....Also, please be sure to read my shop policies/shipping info in full before you purchase (click on "policies" on my main shop page).
