Meet Lilac, she is the most divine and rare 1930s handmade embroidered sheer cotton organdy dream dress. It really is rare that I source any 30s pieces, but I just couldn't pass this beauty up, she is just divine! She has a frilled collar, cinched in waist and the most gorgeous cut. I also loved the fact she has a Pansy flower corsage, how charming and characterful. When worn this dress will look a true dream, and I know she will be treasured wherever she is heading..
This girl measures to approx UK size 6/8 - would work on a 4
Bust - up to 34"
Waist - 26"
Length - 54"
For reference our mannequin, Norma, measures to a UK 6.
The Lilac has been freshly laundered and is ready to wear. Handwash in cool water and drip dry. She is in good vintage condition, she has a few minor signs of wear. She had a weak spot centre skirt due to the fragile nature of her fabric, so I have added in a seam which cannot be noticed, this adds a little more strength to the area.
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.
