Its classic dropped waist is finished with a narrow belt and glittering Art Deco diamanté buckle, while alternating triangular panels of lace and crepe create a wonderful effect throughout the skirt. With long lace sleeves, a scalloped hem, and a full lining, it is special survivor from the Jazz Age. It is a dress one could imagine being worn to an evening gathering at Downton Abbey. Now around a century old, this old girl needs treating kindly – a great project piece for the right person. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0in; font-family: 'Cormorant Garamond'; font-size: 12.0pt;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0in; font-family: 'Cormorant Garamond'; font-size: 12.0pt;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eMeasurements:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0in; font-family: 'Cormorant Garamond'; font-size: 12.0pt;\"\u003eBust: 36\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0in; font-family: 'Cormorant Garamond'; font-size: 12.0pt;\"\u003eWaist: 32\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0in; font-family: 'Cormorant Garamond'; font-size: 12.0pt;\"\u003eLength: 44\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0in; font-family: 'Cormorant Garamond'; font-size: 12.0pt;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0in; font-family: 'Cormorant Garamond'; font-size: 12.0pt;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eCondition:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0in; font-family: 'Cormorant Garamond'; font-size: 12.0pt;\"\u003eA beautiful but delicate antique piece with understandable signs of its considerable age. The lace has begun to give way in a number of places, creating several small openings throughout – we have photographed this as well as we could. There is some yellowing to the underskirt and a small hole near the lower front-left hem, perhaps caused by a heel at some previous party. Despite the flaws, the dress as a whole is beautiful and remains wearable with \u003cem\u003every\u003c\/em\u003e careful handling. Alternatively, it would make a wonderful restoration project. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0in; font-family: 'Cormorant Garamond'; font-size: 12.0pt;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0in; font-family: 'Cormorant Garamond'; font-size: 12.0pt;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eMaterials:\u003c\/span\u003e believed to be silk crepe with floral lace and a full lining; exact composition has not been confirmed\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0in; font-family: 'Cormorant Garamond'; font-size: 12.0pt;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eEra:\u003c\/span\u003e 1920s-1930s\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0in; font-family: 'Cormorant Garamond'; font-size: 12.0pt;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/span\u003e unknown, likely made in England or elsewhere in Europe\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kendall's Vintage Collections","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54670308770131,"sku":null,"price":155.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1006\/3839\/2659\/files\/IMG_8479.jpg?v=1787503968","url":"https:\/\/kendallsvintage.com\/products\/antique-jazz-age-black-lace-and-crepe-evening-dress","provider":"Kendall's Vintage Collections","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
