Sold Out $218.00
A classic 1920s flapper style dress! Black silk. A simple drop-waist, sleeveless silhouette. Chiffon triangles cascade down one side of the front and move beautifully when dancing. Beautiful in the simplicity! Slips on over the head with no openings. I believe the silk waist band at one time was tacked together to create a more blouson effect above, but was let out at some point in the past to allow for a better fit in the hips.
DETAILS
Label | none (homemade?) |
Best fits | S/M (see measurements) |
Circa | 1920s |
Fabric | Silk and chiffon |
Condition | Overall very good. The dress is very structurally sound and very wearable (with care as with all 1920s dresses). There are just a few minor signs of wear that are pointed out for accuracy although they don't affect the beauty of the dress.. There is an older/period repair on the back (see last photo) and a tiny pinhole on the back near the hem. There are a few scattered small holes in the chiffon, but the aren't extremely visible because of the draping. As mentioned above, the waist band has been let out. Priced accordingly. |
