This is a fun black silk 30s dress. The dress has a fun sweetheart-style neckline. There are darling two-layer flutter sleeves. The dress has a drop waist and is gathered at the sides. On the left side, there is a button placket to help get the dress on. At the drop waist, there are two large ruffles that flutter over the hips. The skirt is bias cut and hangs in an A-line silhouette. There is also a keyhole that fastens with a hook and loop in the back of the dress to help get your head and arms in the dress.

Condition:

The dress is overall in good condition with a few flaws to note. The center of the neckline and the bottom part of the keyhole has been torn, most likely by someone trying, and it's not going so well. It is an over-the-head slip-on dress so you need a little wiggle room to get it on. There is also a small repair to a hole on the front by the waistline but it is not super noticeable. The dress is a little fragile but did pass the pull test. It has been professionally hand laundered and is ready to wear.
