40s Navy Blue Front Zip Up Hostess Dress - Sm Md$79.00
This lovely silken dress (silk or silken rayon?) is such an adorable little day dress. But it’s also easy to dress up for a night out. The dress zips up the front with an oh so sexy little zipper. The detailing at the collar and sleeve demonstrate that this is truly a unique little gem. The lace detailing at the sleeves is just so chic - but if you prefer, it looks like it could also be removed. The original shoulder and armpit pads are inside the piece still- but they too could be removed. No tags inside garment. Model is modern size 4/6 .
Measurements:
Bust: up to 37 inches zipped fully
Waist: 28 inches
Hips: OPEN
Length: 48 inches
Sleeve Length 19.5 inches
Good vintage condition - There are a few pulls at the seams and a some very small holes along the hem. VERY MINOR color fade on the sleeve - it wouldn’t even photograph sorry!. The cotton lace detailing in the sleeve looks like a post-market add on by the original owner (though still very lovely!). Please see photos.
