This piece was recently acquired from a 5th generation Portland woman whose antique/vintage collection is unlike any I have seen.. she was kind enough to let some of her pieces go, & I’m happy to have this beauty in the studio for now, & help it find it’s next home.
Fits a range of sizes (I’m about a M)
62” length at longest point
Unlined, except for back yoke is reinforced with muslin
100% hand-sewn, no machine work, sans the yoke reinforcement
Devorè (does not feel like silk, could be a rayon blend)
Fur trim (best guess is mink)
Back yoke with gathering
Curved hem
Drop armhole
Single hook closure at drop waist
Belt for styling only, not included
Excellent antique condition (there are some areas of darning & fur trim inconsistencies, all minor & add to charm, does not effect wear)
Color: Black & white
Material: Fur, rayon & silk
