1920s Peach and Blue Silk Chiffon Floral Dress

About the Item

This enchanting 1920s silk chiffon floral print dress is delightfully feminine and in absolutely beautiful condition for a piece of this era. The dress has a scoop neck at both front and reverse , and features cape style sleeves with scalloped edge which float pretty over the upper arms. The peach toned silk chiffon overlay is printed with a floral design in soft blues, reds and ochre. It is fashioned with a dropped waistline atop of a full skirt falling to the ankles in soft folds with an ethereal, bohemian aesthetic. A slip in pale blue silk is sewn into the dress and shows through to complement the delicate shades of the print. Both the slip and the overlay have a run of subtle popper fastenings to the left. This exquisite piece is unlabelled although of obvious quality, and would make a wonderful choice of occasion wear. A petite dress, our model is size UK 6 / US 2 on top and a UK 8 / US 4 on bottom and this fit her well. MEASUREMENTS Bust - 32.3 in. (82 cm) Waist - 30.7 in. (78 cm) Hip - 38.6 in.
