40s cocktail dress in a pale mauve - rosey cream coloured rayon. Lots of fun features on this but the massive batwing sleeve is really fantastic, so wide under the arm and tapering heavily into a snug cuff with popper buttons. Underbust is sewn in a point with gathers to the bust for a drapey fullness and a sleek collarless v-neck. Big silver sequin embellishment to the shoulder. Fitted waistband and matching tie belt. Midi skirt, very slightly a-lined with an asymmetric ruffle on the hip. Side metal zipper.

CONDITION
Good condition.
-Some very faint mark to the skirts, see photos, and some very very minor discolouration to underarms/batwing, but this is not easily noticeable when worn, as it is so minor.
-Some slight scuffs on the tie belt and a tiny pin hole on the back.
-A few opened stitches at the bottom of the v-neck.
