Vintage 1940s Pink Bouquet Floral Rayon Dress

Raleigh Vintage

This is such an iconic 1940s rayon dress!  Lightweight, silky navy cold rayon with a gorgeous pink and green floral print.  Shirt dress styling with a button front, blouson bodice.  The bias cut skirt drapes beautifully.  The short sleeves have been lengthened (see photo), but could easily be shortened if desired.  Original belt included.  Side metal zipper.

 

DETAILS

Label:  none

Best fits: M with a C cup or larger bust (see measurements)

Circa:  1940s

Fabric:  Rayon

Condition:  Overall excellent.  The dress shows very light, normal wear with just a few extremely minor things to note.  The belt buckle is very slightly dingy (see photo).  There is a little wear and darkening on the interior of the collar (not seen on the exterior).  And, if being extremely picky, there is the faintest bit of darkening along the top of the shoulders (really only visible if looking closely for issues).
