I am in love with the dress! It's a lightweight semi sheer cotton or cotton silk mix fabric that has been cut and embroidered to create these stunningly beautiful flowers that cover the entire dress. The twenties and thirties saw some of the absolute best textiles that you can find and this gown illustrates a superb example. It is backed in the same color lining and the effect is light and airy and feminine. So romantic and whimsical it will make a wonderful dress for summer events or even a less formal wedding gown. The bodice is a simple halter with a pretty ruffle detail that circles the top of the bodice and carries down the front. Tiny straps and a gradually widening A-line skirt that goes to the floor finish this wonderful piece! A superb thirties gown and in excellent condition.
