Vintage 1940s maxi dress made from a mid-weight seafoam greenish blue floral cotton lace material. Absolutely lovely, with a fitted bodice beautifully adorned with a ruffled cold shoulder that flatters the chest. A low hip and full ankle length skirt accentuates the curves while elongating the figure. A metal zipper at the side allows for easy wear. Perfect for spring and summer gatherings or even casual wear!

A Note on Buying Vintage

This is an antique or early vintage garment made from delicate materials such as silk, fine cotton, lace, or early synthetics. These textiles may display signs consistent with age, which includes:

• natural fiber fatigue
• gentle thinning at stress points
• subtle irregularities inherent to early manufacturing
• age-related softness or patina

These qualities are authentic to historic garments and are considered part of their character, not defects, unless otherwise stated.

Notable flaws, such as excessive wear, stains, holes, or rips will always be photographed and disclosed in the condition notes.
