Short sleeves and Claudine collar applied with a golden cord and knotted. Integrated belt with two flaps hanging out on the front to refine the silhouette. Beautiful bobbin lace in the bottom of the skirt with gold thread and mauve and purple silk. Excellent condition of color and conservation.

In the years of shortage that marked the Second World War in Europe, seamstresses competed inventiveness by stimulating a creative sense sometimes very happy. This non-label, hand-made, unlined dress is a prime example. Satin has retained the rigidity of the most beautiful silk prints! A must in its category!
In a perfect condition.
