30s/40s Moire 40s Drop Waist Black Cocktail Formal Dress$120.00
🌵Crazy gorgeous handmade 1940's formal black dress with the coolest woody texture throughout. Little keyhole neckline and a beautiful flattering neckline. I also love the little drop waist and bias cut at the skirt. Soooo beautiful and very timeless. Original metal side zip on the side. This is in a great mid size you don't see super often in dresses from this era. No tags to indicate if this was purchased in a store or made at home, but I suspect it was made by a master seamstress custom for a client. This is great for a voluptuous on top and the hip area but with a smaller waist.
🌵Condition:
Great vintage condition for it's age, metal zipper slides up and down seamlessly. No issues like stains rips or tears in fabric.
