Description: Vintage 1920s Drop Waist Silk Satin Beaded Flapper Wedding Dress Estimated modern small or extra small depending on build and/or desired fit. Please keep in mind this will need to be pulled over your head - PLEASE see measurements to confirm and/or make your own best judgment call as to sizing and keep in mind, when looking at the measurements, there is not any stretch. This dress was soaked / hand laundered, but will absolutely need to be pressed / steamed. This will be folded and shipped in a box. Again, it will absolutely need to be pressed / steamed. FEATURES: Pullover style. Beaded detailing on waist and skirt. Beaded detailing in front is (partially) on top of satin accents. Satin ribbon that goes through the waistline and ties to one side. COLOR: it’s sort of an ecru color WOUNDS FROM TIME: Some water staining and some underarm discoloration. See photos. A couple of small spots. There are a couple of spots of beading where the beads are loose (on a long strand - see photo). However, I didn’t notice any blatantly missing beads. While there are some small pin holes in the silk? It is incredibly wearable and feels structurally sound. That’s super rare in beaded flapper dresses as the weight of the beads often caused too much stress on the silk. Missing the original slip. Would’ve likely been paired with a satin slip. I am wearing a bodysuit in the video and photo. MATERIAL: I believe it to be silk. Obviously that is just a guess, but feel, touch, period appropriateness all would point to that This is thin and will need a slip or bodysuit to go underneath since - again - the original one is missing. Measurements taken flat and APPROXIMATE Shoulder to shoulder- 13.5” Shoulder to top of satin ribbon - 22” Waist at that point- 16.5” (smallest part of waist is 16” Hips not taken Chest front (underarm to underarm)- 18” Chest back (underarm to underarm)- 16” Shoulder to front of hem- 37.5” I am 5’2” and weighed 100 pounds at the time the video was filmed. This fit was fine on me, but definitely loose enough where I could be a little larger and still have it fit appropriately (and get it on without damage)
