Gorgeous depression era handmade dress with lace on the exaggerated collar. Hand beading on the sleeves, beautiful delicate gathering on the sleeves and waist. The fabric is a super soft linen, not heavy at all and super breathable. Beautiful cotton lining on the skirt. Pleated on the waist for a super flattering fit. Best worn a bit oversized to show off the little drop of the waist. This dress was expertly handmade, beautiful French seam work throughout. Original glass beads. Sooooo gorgeous.
