40's VINTAGE SILK GLAMOUR GOWN W/LACE ILLUSION BODICE


This sexy, sultry 40s gown looks like something a silver screen siren like Rita Hayworth would have worn. Medium weight, lustrous black satiny silk. The liquid qualilty of this beautiful fabric will mold to every curve. A very special outfit for a very special black tie event.

Back yoke, top of shoulder and bust of embroidered lace.
Illusion netting in bust area.
Sweetheart neckline with satin ties on both sides.
Neckline is elasticized in shoulder area to hold dress in place.
Long sleeves with six satin covered button and loop closures.

Seaming through bodice and a slightly dropped waist.
Straight column skirt.
Waist drops to a V in back, where skirt is gathered, accentuating the curve of the hips and derriere.
Two attached panels float provocatively behind as you walk.

15" black metal zipper begins just below back yoke.

I am guessing from the quality construction and style, that this was a designer gown, but just the "Saks Fifth Avenue" label remains.

Measurements-
Bust 38"
Waist 29"
Hips 38"
Length 59"
Top of shoulder to just below illusion bust 10"(this measurement indicates the dress is meant for someone with a high bosom)
Sleeve length approximately 23"
Bottom sleeve opening 6 1/2" around

Please be sure your own measurements are at least an inch or two smaller than the garment's so you can move in this dress!

This dress is in excellent condition. A couple of areas of the embroidery have been retacked. Otherwise dress looks like it was never worn. It's just waiting for its next grand entrance!
