About
This is a late 1920's angelic masterpiece. The unique unstructured style is strikingly modern yet the abundance of handmade batternburg-lace is a treasure trove of antique needle art. The bodice has the most flattering low-cut plunge which accentuates the bustline. The straight column construction channels the flapper sentiment so celebrated during this era. As fresh today as when new- the color appeals to our nostalgia for the unhurried, genteel lifestyle of this beautiful decade.

This antique dress is in excellent wearable condition with no visible rips,stains or breaks. This beauty just needs a slip. A white one would be perfect for a wedding; a colored slip would be more informal and contemporary. The dress slips on without closures. This piece is over 90 years old and is truly spectacular.
