  • Fair condition.Dress was entirely home made by the original owner. The silhouette appliqués were cut out of a light silk fabric and applied with glue rather than sewn. There is scattered oxidized staining throughout on the white satin of the bodice and the skirt. More so on the back of the dress than the front. The old glue has oxidized and shows where it was not carefully applied by the maker of the dress. The silhouette appliqués show wear, especially to the cut edges of the fabric. They are still securely attached and there is no peeling or loss.  A discreet reinforcement under one arm (see photo). This dress has not been cleaned and is offered as found.
