This is a gorgeous dress from the late 1940s. A precious flannel wool tartan in red and very dark navy blue. She has an exquisite design with a super chic collar with fringes and back buttons closure. Vertical waist seams and bat-sleeves. Two pockets with fringes. Superb skirt. She closes with a side metal zipper. It has a label but it is so worn out that unfortunately it is not readable anymore. It also has a tiny tag with numbers or letters.
