1930s Sweetheart French Silk and Lace Appliqué Slip [xs/sm]
$1,392.00
Incredibly special 1930s French petal pink silk slip dress with glorious lace appliqués along the straps, bodice, and cascading down the side of the bias cut skirt. The styling on this slip is unique, with a lace crossover bodice, cross back straps and silk cord tie closures at the center back. The ties at the waist are exceptionally long to give the option of wrapping they all the way around the waist, tying at either the front of the back. There is a small finished hole at the back waist that allows the tie to pass through when crossed over. This piece is made to the highest quality standards, sewn entirely by hand even down to the seams, and was very likely made as a custom piece. Unlike some slip dresses from this era, the silk is opaque making it easily wearable as a dress. Would make an incredible bridal option.
Excellent condition. A few incredibly subtle minor marks that are totally invisible when worn. Presents as mint.
