This vintage 1930s overdress was made from a bright rose pink cotton tulle with lovely floral embroidery throughout. Sleek and slim fitting with large puffed sleeves that create a stunning silhouette. This gorgeous gown closes up the center of the bodice with lace covered satin buttons all the way up to the darted collar neck. Open at the skirt, which reveals the long rayon satin slip and its ruffled hem. An accompanying slider belt pulls this set together. An iconic, truly marvelous set that will have you feeling like a total princess.

Condition
Very good: Hand washed and steamed. Presents beautifully and structurally sound for wear. Tulle retains full stretch and all buttons are intact. Belt looks to have been unused and is slightly darker than the set. One button has lost the lace on the overdress and there are a few small breaks primarily around the hem as pictured. Slip has some water marks that created stains and some faint underarm shadows. There is some blue stitching above the hem from where there used to be a blue ribbon. All hide very well under the overdress. Described flaws make it sound worse than it is, I promise!
