Vintage Late 1930s Red Rayon Polka Dot Swing Dress

This is a fun late 1930s swing dress!  Lightweight, muted red rayon crepe with large, off-white polka dots.  Faux-wrap front on the bodice.  Wide waistband with a semi-full, pleated swing skirt.  Side buttons.

NOTE: Red is a color that computer monitors show differently.  The dress is a muted red and perhaps not as bright red as your computer shows.

 

DETAILS

Label:  none

Best fits:  S/M (see measurements)

Circa:  Late 1930s / early 1940s

Condition:  Overall very good.   The dress is in great condition with just a few very minor cosmetic issues to note.  There is an extremely tiny pin-prick hole on the upper shoulder (see last photo) and some light age darkening of the dots on the shoulders/arms (see photos).  Missing original belt.  It would also benefit from a professional dry cleaning.  Priced accordingly.
