Description
Original Handmade 1920’s Black & White Geometric Pattern Bias Cut Silk Flapper DressThis is a beautiful dress in very good condition for its age.
There are no holes rips or tears.
No repairs or funny smells
It is made of black & white silk with a fitted white silk bodice, defined waist,
& flaring bias cut black silk skirt
There is a white silk "shield / arrow" whits silk insert on the skirt
giving it a very cool geometric design
There is a belt made of folded tulle measuring approx 30" with a diamond shaped rhinestone buckle
The dress has not been laundered
There are 2 very tiny areas that may present a problem in the future, along the back neckline there is a tiny (approx 1/4" long) spot where it looks like the silk is fraying.
There is a similar spot in the center back of the bodice ( approx the same size) If you hold it up to bright light you can see it
These could be reinforced from the inside but there is no opening for the dress other than pulling it on over the head so that may explain the little stressed areas - have a good look at the pictures to see the issues described
***No fasteners - leave room to slip it on over the head**
