Beautiful 1940’s rayon shirt dress cut on the bias. This striking piece features a shawl-inspired cowl neckline that softly frames the décolletage, extending into elegant pointed shoulders adorned with decorative button accents. Subtle shoulder pads provide gentle structure and definition, creating that iconic 1940’s tailored shape while beautifully balancing the fluidity of the rayon fabric. The rich navy blue ground is enlivened by vibrant teal, ivory, and blush pink abstract floral and dotted motifs, giving the dress a bold yet timeless presence. Short sleeves, expertly seamed waist shaping, and its original metal Talon side zipper complete the construction. In lovely vintage condition with one small area on the front showing a couple of minor snags that blend seamlessly into the busy print and remain largely unnoticeable. A stunning and wearable piece of fashion history that perfectly captures the elegance, structure, and femininity of the 1940’s!
Measurements: Bust 37”, Waist 27”, Hips 41”, Shoulder 15.5”, Sleeve 5.5”, Waist To Hem 27”, Shoulder to Hem, 44.5”
All sales final: It is our mission to disclose all issues found, but all of our items are vintage - which means most of them have been worn or used and may have minor issues. In the event that we have overlooked an issue, it is not because we misrepresented the item, it is because the issue was not apparent enough to demand our attention. We can only apologize for our oversight and hope you can repair the issue, but we do not accept returns for items we have photographed & listed on our website.
