This dress is a thing of sheer vintage beauty! Made by Paul Parnes, this 40s/50's dress features a lovely all over floral print, shaped lapels, and POCKETS!!
Side metal Talon zipper closure.
No fabric tag, but it feels to be a rayon, and you can see a bit of the texture of the fabric in the photos. Still has original thread belt loops, but there is no belt with the dress.
Note - this dress is a DARK navy blue, it photographed lighter than it is. It almost looks black in some lighting.
This dress is in good to very good vintage condition! I am selling it as-is, however. There is some unraveling at the seams (see photos), and the stitching has come loose on the right sleeve (see photo). These are easy fixes. There seems to have been some repair in the solid trim around the collar, but it's really not noticeable unless you look closely.
Also note, I have not laundered this garment. There are a couple minor discolorations/stains, but again, not very noticeable, and they may come out after laundering.
There is NO stretch to this dress, so please note the measurements carefully!
