Vintage 1940s Red Roses Print Black Silk Dress

Lightweight black silk with a graphic red roses and dots print.  Semi-fitted bodice and a straight skirt.  The back neckline is a deep v.  There is a short 'collar' on the front that can be worn up or down (we prefer it up) that ties in the back.  Bias cut so the entire dress drapes beautifully.  The tie can be tied in various ways.  Unlined.  Side metal zipper.
