Gauzy 30s in lawn dress with small pink embroidery and purple grosgrain trims. Really lovely delicate design, completely sheer, in what feels like a starched gauze cotton. Double layered shawl collar with grosgrain edging and small bow to the front. Short puffed sleeves. Curved underbust with small gathers to the bust seam. Fitted waist with a matching ribbon tie. Skirt is a long length and design in two tiers. Sewn in neat gathers for a soft full fit. Non-sheer white rayon underskirt fabric to the top part of the inner tier, from which the bottom ruffles falls freely. Side seam fastens with small popper buttons and hook to waistband.
Dress is pictured with a petticoat which is not included in the sale.

CONDITION
Good condition.
-A small tier had been added to the underskirt under the top tier, but this has been let back down, leaving some faint signs of the old stitching, but as it is under the tier, it doesn't really show when worn.
-A few small scattered marks. See photos. Faint bit of discolouration to shoulders/collar, barely shows when worn.
-Edges of the grosgrain ribbon bow and waist tie show some light fraying.
