Bias cut with beautiful eyelet detail at the center chest which adds a subtle yet very special bit of decor to the bodice. Short ruched sleeves adorned with silk satin ribbon bows which contribute to the sweetness of the gown. Very flattering with ruched panels under the bust and a sleek waist panel that accentuates the figure without constriction. What makes this gown so very special is the very sexy deep slit at the center back framed in silk satin, closing at the neck with ribbon bows and directly above the derriere with fabric covered buttons. Midi length with a fluted hem. This dress is truly what dreams are made of!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQuick Facts\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLabel: None, likely made special for someone\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEra: 1930s-1940s\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaterial: Silk crepe, silk satin\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eColor: Buttermilk (a rich creme shade of white)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSize: Small, medium (please see measurements)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition: Hand washed and steamed with no holes or rips.
