Meet Dove, an absolutely gorgeous 30s/40s ivory satin glamorous and truly romantic dream dress. It's rare I pick up older pieces like this, but I truly fell in love with this girls balloon sleeves and sumptuous satin, she is just truly beautiful and divine. She has a gorgeous cut with epic sleeves, ruched V neck bodice which has a deep panelled waistband and side ties which tie at the back to cinch. Her skirt hangs beautifully and she has two loose cut free flowing panels to add a little more drama. Dove is gorgeous and truly seductive, I know who ever is lucky enough to own her will treasure her forever.

Waist - 29" possibly 30" - has side ties to cinch
Length - 58" - 60" slightly longer at the back
For reference our mannequin, Norma, measures to a UK 6.
The Dove has been freshly laundered and is ready to wear. She can safely be washed at home on a cool setting. She is in good vintage condition, she has a few minor signs of wear. She has a few tiny damages which are inline with a piece of this age and to be expected, a few minor marks and a small hole to her lower skirt which cannot be noticed when worn, one cuff has some light discolouration, none of this detracts.
This beauty has minimal signs of vintage wear, but please bear in mind that our pieces are true vintage, they’ve been danced in and they have been lived in, so all of our garments will carry your usual signs of vintage wear. Anything that we think is outside of what would class as usual vintage wear, we will state.
