Vintage 1930's Cartwright Ivory Striped Silk Rayon Cut-Out Maxi Dress & Jacket
About the Item
The vibrant rainbow-stripe used on this ivory silk rayon 1930's "Cartwright" designer dress ensemble has a whimsical allure that I find irresistible. The sleeveless bodice has a flirty middle cut out while the backside has a chic criss-cross. The mock-blouse design ends at a high-waist, where it breaks into a sculpted full-length skirt. The eight-panel piece work to create the skirting in particular is quite extraordinary. The stylized charm of the matching wide-cuff jacket makes it a statement piece in it's own right. Just look at the detailed back pleated! This figure flattering ensemble accentuates the bust, skims the hip and perfectly captures that causal "Old Hollywood" starlet style. It is very rare to find 1930's dress sets that, through time, stay together.

- Vintage 1920's Martha Weathered Couture Pastel Silk Rosettes Filet Lace DressLocated in Beverly Hills, CAA breathtaking museum quality bridal dance dress dating back to the mid-1920's. Two layers are cleverly designed to complement each other; a fine filet-lace outer layer with a foliate design over an ecru silk-crepe slip layer embroidered with pastel silk-ribbon rosettes. The rosettes are positioned under the filet-lace design so that they appear to be the blooms of the foliate in the lace! The overall effect is quite spectacular, and the dress has survived beautifully over the years. A small designer label in the interior reading "Weathered Misses Shop Chicago", which was the one shop in Chicago able to import French couture. The original owner of the garment said the shop was able to do this by selecting the couture designs overseas. After making their selections, the patterns and materials would be shipped over for fabrication in their own workrooms, allowed them to sidestep the hefty import tax on already completed couture models. The design and construction are identity to Callot Soeurs aesthetic who was known for working with wealth American clients. A rare piece of ethereal fashion history that will become a favorite in your collection.
