Description
1940’s formal with a cropped bolero jacket lined with sequins. The dress has wide spaghetti straps with a neckline that V’s in the front and swoops in the back. The bodice is fitted with a metal side zipper & light gathering of the fabric along the waistline. This reminds me of Old Hollywood during the Glamour Years.
This garment is in GOOD VINTAGE CONDITION.. with some light fade on the front of the dress’s skirt.. the fade runs up and down following the folds of the skirt, so it is hard to notice when worn. ( see last image)
There is no maker or size label attached.
By the measurements, I would say that this dress is a WOMEN’S SMALL
