Olive Brown Split-Shoulder Tabard Flapper Dress with Hip Rosettes – S, 1920s
About the Item
From the estate of department store heiress Estela Jácome, this exceptional early 20s dress is the epitome of alluring modesty. Despite its sensual hip rosettes, high-split tabard sides and deep arm holes, the wearer remains fully covered thanks to its attached olive satin slip. Its glimmering bronze and amber faceted seed beads are just the icing on the proverbial cake.
Sleeveless, drop shoulder tabard flapper dress with round front and rear neckline and self-fabric hip rosettes each side; split at each shoulder. Embellished around neckline, down sides and around low hipline with faceted bronze and amber seed beads in floral motif; attached satin slip. Dress underarms open to waist; slip features left side hook and eye closures from waist to underarm, where dress and slip fasten via snaps at left shoulder.
