This vintage 1930s dress has the hallmark bias-cut that is so beloved in these highly sought-after 1930s styles, but with unusual details that make this dress particularly rare, including the diamond-shaped quilted yoke waistband. The bias-cut dress is known to highlight the curves while flattering the body, and this detail at the waistband supports that hourglass shape. Note the gathering at the chest, which creates volume. Two ribbon ties form a bow in the back. Sweet ruffle details adorn the neckline and back. The quilted matching bolero matches the quilting pattern on the waist yoke. The bias cut of the fabric makes the skirt fall so beautifully, and there are godets at the hem to create an even fuller sweep. The chest is lined, while the skirt is not. It closes with side snaps at the bodice— you need to slip on overhead and then fasten the snaps.
The Vintage Pearl Cluster Earrings pictured are also available.
