This gorgeous 1940s gown is the drama! A cinematic showstopper with insanely beautiful construction and a dramatic sweeping skirt, she's ready for a grand entrance. The bodice has a sheer square neckline with sweet puffed short sleeves and is fitted to the hips before flaring dramatically to the full length sweeping hem. The delicate floral rayon lace and mesh is impeccably mitered in a pointed stripe throughout over a sleek liquid silk lining in inky black. The perfect gown for your next black tie event, we think she would be stunning as an unconventional wedding dress. Due to the age and delicate nature of the material, there are some visible mends and tiny tears, priced accordingly. No labels, well made circa 1940s.
