Last One - Floral Dress

[jauntyrooster]

This is one item from the trunk that I believe was actually worn/owned by someone. The style just doesn't fit in with all the dresses with their tags. Also it has the little clip on the collar which makes me think someone may have worn.

Another with no labels but it doesn't seem homemade either. The waist is not elastic and has about zero give. Material is very gauzy and feels fragile but actually is quite sound. It has a slip like lining which I have shown.

Thank you again - I hope I say it enough!! I appreciate.

30s!!!

I found one similar last summer... made a nice fortune on it and the silk lining was shattered. Yours looks in better shape.

Oh, it's a beauty!

So cute and you look amazing!

Aw! You're too kind!

Shoes (90s) came from a thrift store. $2. Dress was $10. 1930s. Found it at a funny little swap meet.

Bycin, you and that lovely dress were made for each other. Looks incredible on you.

Bycin, you and that lovely dress were made for each other. Looks incredible on you.

I agree--it fits you perfectly! And it looks to be in wonderful condition--what a find!

Thanks, gals! It was fun to find. In a pile. And so easy to clean. Guy who bought it helps car collectors dress up for events so it's being used very appropriately. : )

How lovely!

Seems the flowery chiffony 30s dresses I've run across at auction are invariably shattering--congrats on finding one that's intact!

ps Love your outfit, Bycin! And can't believe you scored that dress so cheaply...

Thanks, Carrie! It was a fun thing to own for the 2 days I had it. Boy, it FLEW out of my hands once I listed it. But my bf insisted I wear it a little so I could *feel* the era, which was sooooo cool. LOVE the 20s/30s clothing!
