Vintage 1940's - 1950's Dress | Pale Blue Rayon Taffeta with Diamond Satin Damask Pattern & Glass Buttons | Size M, LG

Vintage late 1940's to early 1950's pale blue rayon taffeta dress with a satin damask diamond pattern throughout. The collar snaps behind the neck to give a high-drama look that pairs beautifully with an up-do. Fitted in the bodice with a nipped waist and huge sweeping skirt that falls just above the ankle. Side metal zip closure and brass/glass button closure up the center chest. Absolutely darling!

CONDITION

Very good: There are a few small holes above the hem in the skirt and a some marks from age. Very faint yellowing at the arm coi that is so faint I did not notice until under studio lighting.
