[ FEATURES AND DETAILS... ]
- This is an amazing feat of sewing and design! This dress has impressive workmanship that should be preserved and displayed. It is made of a light navy blue wool with Four floating embroidered skirt/dress panels with an embroidered design repeated throughout. Beneath the floating panels there is a navy underskirt for extra privacy. It has a mock button-down front with embroidered background, and black silk sash. The shape and style of the sleeves is intriguing with its repeated embroidery. I do not have all the technical terms to describe this dress, but one look and you will see you won’t find another like it.
- Please note that my camera sometimes skews the color shade a little, so what you're seeing might not be 100% true-to-life color, but it's very close. If you have questions about the precise color shade, please message me.
- Dimensions are as pictured. It has no size printed or stamped on it. (Please see the Return Policy below. Sorry, but we cannot accept returns on antique clothing due to size.)
[ CONDITION... ]
- Beautifully preserved antique condition -- from a non-smoking environment. Responsibly worn and stored; no signs of abuse.- No observed flaws.- This outfit has some age to it and was most likely worn at one time by someone, so you may find a small stain, something that could use a needle and thread, etc., as with any used clothing. I've tried to mention whatever significant issues I have noticed.
- Please be aware that these items came from an estate, and there is some residual "estate/antique/attic odor" ... nothing that some Febreze shouldn't handle.The above is my good-faith attempt to disclose all noteworthy issues. Keep in mind that vintage/antique items always show their age. (Don't we all!?) It would be impossible to mention every tiny detail, so please expect that there will be something about this item (or lot) that's not perfect and may need touch-up.
PLEASE SUPERSIZE ALL PHOTOS, AND ASK ALL QUESTIONS BEFORE BIDDING/BUYING. I'LL BE GLAD TO ANSWER.
