Description: AFTER ALMOST 50 YEARS IN ANTIQUE BUSINESS, IT'S TIME TO DOWNSIZE - EXCELLENT PRICES AND EXTREMELY LIMITED SUPPLY OF ITEMS. THIS LISTING IS FOR A UTILITARIAN GOWN FROM 1920-30; THE PIECE WAS WELL MADE AND NICE FABRIC, BUT AT THE END OF THE DECADE, THE STOCK MARKET CRASH, THERE WASN'T ANY MONEY TO PURCHASE MORE UNDERWEAR. FOR THAT REASON, GOWNS LIKE THIS STILL EXIST BUT OFTEN THEY HAVE BEEN RE-SEWN, BUTTONS MOVED, ETC, THIS PIECE HAS A HUGE EXPERTLY MENDED PIECE BACK OF THE LEFT ARM OPENING. ALSO, BECAUSE IT IS SO OLD (COULD BE PRIOR TO 1915, THERE ARE OTHER FLAWS - SEE CONDITIONS. NOTE; two straight tears in the back. THE PIECE HAS A VERY SWEET NECKLINE AND THE SLEEVES ARE SET WITH AN UNUSUAL SLANT, PRETTY EYELET TRIM. IT WAS FAR ABOVE UTILITARIAN VALUE WHEN NEWLY MADE. THE TINY GATHERS FRONT AND BACK SPEAK VOLUMES. I JUST PINNED ON THE BROOCH BECAUSE I THOUGHT IT LOOKED BETTER IN MY RETAIL STORE. The approx measurement of the bust is 39” by laying garment flat and doubling -that’s without stretching the gathers. IMPORTANT: PLEASE BE SURE TO ASK QUESTIONS, REVIEW TEXT AND PHOTOS AND CONTACT IF YOU NEED MORE INFORMATION BECAUSE THERE ARE NO RETURNS, REFUNDS, EXCHANGES, WHATEVER, SERIOUSLY. SHIPPING IN PADDED ENVELOPE. WILL COMBINE ITEMS FOR BETTER SHIPPING RATE. NO INTERNATIONAL OR CANADIAN SHIPPING.
