20s Blue Drop-Waist Sleeveless Shift Dress - sm/med

SKU: 00886-012

From the 1920s, a simple but iconic shift dress in a medium shade of blue, with tucks defining the dropped waist, and fine ruching at the shoulders and hip. You'll want to wear something beneath for modesty (or maybe you won't, I'm not judging). 

Labels: none, likely home sewn 

Fiber/Care: silk crepe / gently washable (flat dry, steam)

Condition: I hope to be this fit at 100 years old! Flaws are a few faint, scattered spots and typical color shift (minor), a pin-head size hole at back, and a horizontal glitch at the right front skirt near the side seam (this last could be covered, if desired, with embellishment such as lace or ribbon, or disappeared by taking a tuck at the side if your hips will allow it). Remarkably, the armpits (typically a mess) are in great shape.

*This 1920s flapper dress is freshly cleaned and ready to wear.*
