Antique-Gown

Abendkleid, ca. 1922

Antique evening dress, ca. 1922. The antique gown is made of fine georgette, the front and back panels of which are hand silk embroidered with beads, sequins and 'pearls', and the sides of which are left unadorned to drape loose and flow down the skirt. The entire lining is a wonderful quality fine silk, far superior to the usual 1920's silk, finishing this luxury garment to perfection. To one side of the dropped waist are two vivid orange & blue feather plumes, the orange one centred with a diamonte brooch effect, and the blue one having a group of large 'pearls' to match the features on the dress. A wonderful piece.

Excellent almost antique condition. A few loose threads. Maybe a few loss beads. You’ll barley notice that in the intense decoration. One of the lining underarms has an edge stain from perspiration, but this cannot be seen on wearing. The decoration is not included.
