These four dresses are early 50s. All very flawed. Flaws easily seen in photos. They were wonderful in their day but are now only good for costume, study or pattern. Some are easily restored, some not so much! All small to medium

The light blue one has stunning styling and would make a stellar pattern for future retro looks. Metal zipper is intact.

Gray wool gabardine with white collar and NO moth holes. Shoulder pads intact. The collar isn't as white as it once was. It comes off. Buttons in front and snaps underneath. Needs zipper, other flaws shown.

Iridescent sharkskin taffeta dress with huge skirt was found with side of skirt seam completely open so it was sewn shut, had 2 pockets but only one is left. Had crinoline but it wrecked & removed. Small holes in front right of skirt. Long back metal zipper. Bodice needs alignment

Gray faille, with black velvet collar, cuffs, and black lace insert. Original belt. Side metal zipper. Lots of fading, in streaks. Faint pit stains. May work for stage/theater, or in some film situations (like a lady zombie flick?). Or use for pattern or study. Or take it apart and use the useful pieces, like lace, velvet pieces and zipper.

This item is sold from an excellent, highly rated vintage boutique in Northfield, OH.
