Rare 1920s floral print gown made from silk chiffon interwoven with real metal lamé threads and accented throughout with French black silk lace panels. Classic 1920s silhouette with a dropped waist and a super full gathered skirt that moves and drapes beautifully. Has long, slightly ballooned sleeves with gathered cuffs that snap at the wrist. The dress otherwise has no closures, and slips on easily overhead. An incredible survivor and perfect example of the mastermind of 1920s textile design; its sheerness makes it a great option for year round occasion dressing. 

Excellent condition. One functional invisible repaired hole at the cuff less than 1/2 in and a couple small invisible repairs to the lace. It is remarkably rare to find a piece of this delicacy in such incredible condition. Presents as mint.
