30s 40s Lavender and Gray Silken Day Dress with Belt

Such a lovely spring dress with a delicate pattern in pink, lavender, and grey. It even comes with a matching belt. The buttons feel like glass buttons. The elegant pleating of the skirt is great to add a bit more volume and comfort. The fabric feels like silk (or maybe a silken blend?) and is thin and airy. The garment appears to be hand made and is not lined. Buttons up the front with 4 buttons and a snap closure. There is a bit of an intentional gap bellow the snap closure to add more room in the opening to put it over your head (not noticeable when worn). Best fits a Small and maybe a Medium. Model is modern size 4/6 and it fits somewhat loosely.

Measurements :

Bust: 36 inches

Waist: up to 30 inches; but belt only goes up to 29

Hips: relatively open

Length: 38 inches

Sleeve Length: 8 inches

Fair vintage condition - This piece presents beautifully and is definitely wearable but has a number of minor issues which is why I gave it a ranking of “Fair”.

First there seems to have been some small repairs to a number of seams of this dress - they look to be in good shape now, but I wanted to make sure to mention that at some points in its life the piece seems to have had some mendable issues and was mended by the former owner. Further there is some general overall wear to the fabric which presents mostly as very faint fading. This wasn’t even noticed until I closely examined the belt next to the dress - at which point I found the dress to be slightly lighter than the belt. There are also some loose strings in the seam allotments. Given the age and materiel, I would say this is still a delicate but wearable piece. The belt has some wear and the belt holes all have minor fraying. Please ask if you have further questions. Please see photos
