Absolutely incredible 1920s dress in delicious gold silk and gold lace. I believe the lace is silk as well. And a larger size for this era too so that's nice. There is ruffled lace trim round the neckline, and then a vertical sash that drops down from the left shoulder both front and back. There are snaps all down the front piece to get you in and out of it. The skirt is the same gold silk with overskirts of more of that gold lace. Just gorgeous! Label reads: None.
This came to me from an old Hollywood costume designer who happened to also be a collector of vintage clothing. She had the most incredible collection all 1800s through the earlier 1950s. I consider these some of the most special pieces I've had.
Great to excellent vintage condition, especially for its age. I would not hesitate to wear this, its quite sound, but with respect due her age of course. Otherwise the only thing worth noting is a area of foxing on the lace on the back side of the skirt. I've shown photos of this. Oh and it is missing one half a snap at the waist.
