This is a superb dress from the 1940s. The fabric is black gab rayon with beautiful black velvet organic decoration on the pockets. She has a truly beautiful neckline and a fabulous shape. Note that this dress is way too big for our mannequin and unfortunately pictures don't make justice to her fabulous curvy cut on the hips. She closes with front buttons and a side zipper. Tag reads size 45.
