This is an spectacular German dress from the 1940s. The fabric is silk in a glorious teal color with a fabulous black and white print. She has beautiful neckline and a perfect shape. Note that since the dress is way too big for our mannequin, we made a pleat on each side and brought them to the front which it looks really good too because the dress already has a pleat/seam from the shoulder to the mid-bodice. She closes with a side RIES metal zipper and a matching belt. Please make sure you read the condition!

Condition: In great overall condition but it has a few flaws that need some attention/fixings: the inner collar is a bit damaged and the front neckline and shoulders show a subtle but visible fading (view photos). On the back there are two different groups of pinholes and tiny holes that will need to be fixed with inner reinforcement fabric (view photos). A couple of hard to notice and small marks/stains on the skirt (view photo). Please view all last photos with yellow arrows/signs. Aside from that the dress is still in great shape and after making some fixings it will be ready to party again!
