hello

i found this dress in a thrift store in paris, it appears to be handmade. it has a side metal zipper, very full skirt, bust darts and weird waist pleats. the fabric is a thick rayon or synthetic blend with a relief wave pattern.
the hem is very thin, i would guess it's been shortened?

i'm 5'4'' and the waist sits a little higher than a normal high waist, maybe it's a 40s or 60s gown shortened?

european vintage is tricky, so i wouldn't be surprised if it was even more recent.
