I would put a round silver box clasp on it like the ones that Wendy Gell uses and sell it. They bring a good price. She has a website. She might even buy it from you.
even with elastic in that casing which is just a double layer of lace I think. Something would be way off. the lace would drape below the wrist. So perhaps they would just fold the elastic to somewhere on the upper arm for the fit. Or ties to control the drop as Barbara suggested.
I have some pictures of the skirt area that show the bias cut on the panels. That is why I thought 30s. I think it may have been a costume. Do you wnt it Jonathan? I will send it to you.
I think this might be 1930s. This has a metal side zipper marked OM- I- Noor and Over Zip. It also has a short zipper at the back of the neck. The sleeves are super long but the dress is an XXS. I am thinking it must be a costume because of the sleeves. Any ideas?
I have had them before but can't remember what they were called. It seems they were mens western wedding ties. That was back when I sold on ebay and don't have an easy record to look at like Etsy. Can't find any out there with searches but I know they were fairly common. I am thinking 70s 80s
yes I have used tabard but was not sure if it was a good key word. I too think long vest is a good descriptor. Have a beautiful day Barbara and thank you.
