*(big)Details:* These classic 40s dresses are becoming more and more scarce, especially in such a real woman size! Wrap front bodice fitted with diagonal darting at the waist and shirring at the padded shoulders. The short flared sleeves are scalloped at the bottom. flashing glimpses of pink from the contrast facing. A diagonal faux peplum gathers at the left waist anchored by a floppy pink lined self fabric bow.
*(big)Size:* No size label. I believe this may have been made for a shorter than average woman, so do keep the bodice length in mind.

*(big)Fabric:* Medium weight black rayon, with a screened print of ribbons tied in bows. The bows are rendered in tiny pink and white dots. The sleeves are faced in peachy pink rayon that peeks out from under the edge.
*(big)Tag:* No tags at all.
*(big)Closures:* Sideseam metal zipper.
*(big)Condition:* A small hole in one layer of the top of the faux peplum - see closeup. A similar but smaller hole on the lower front skirt. A few slightly abraded looking areas where it looks like tiny white fibers are visible - see other closeup of the left front bodice near the armpit. I have repaired open seams and the dress is ready to wear.
