1919 Beaded Drop Waist Dress
$90
Sheerest peach chiffon drop waist dress with swirling glass beadwork from the late teens - early 1920s. It has a sash waistband with an incredible beaded decorative tassel bauble. It has scattered staining throughout. A proto Zandra Rhodes creation!
It is currently wearable (with care) and intact but due to the nature of the garment (sheer paper-thin chiffon with dense glass beadwork) it may fall apart with repeated wear, and may be best for study, display, or occasional wear.
measurements laying flat:
across shoulder: 17-19"
armpit to armpit: 21"
across drop waist: 15 3/4"
across hips: 23"
total length: 44"
