Item Number: 110005-1920
Vintage 1920s LONG Fringe Navy Blue Silk Flapper Dress Tunic, Gatsby, Boardwalk Empire, size L
The deep V neckline and sleeveless bodice are very simple and sleek on this navy blue silk long fringed vintage 1920's flapper dress. Featuring two rows of uber long fringe, the upper row is black and the lower row is deep navy blue, they are attached at waist (black) and drop-waist (blue) levels. This is the grooviest twenties dress I have ever seen. The dress is sheer below the waist so you will need a plan for the skirt, whether that entail a slip or leggings. The fringe is in remarkable shape, just some 'frizzies' along the shafts and slight fading at the ends. No matter though, it's such an awesome take on the fringed flapper dress, I am in love with this one.
The dress is unlined and closes at one shoulder with hooks.
Condition: Very Good/Excellent. Structurally sound and ready to wear (except you'll need a slip or leggings). Not sure this dress is in its original length as the fabric body of the dress is more tunic length. The fringe is frayed along the strands (like frizzy hair) and lighter at the ends (like highlights grown out). The hooks will need reinforcing at the shoulders, just a couple of stitches really.
Measurements:
Bust 46"
Waist 42"
Hips 50"
25" long at the center back
V neck plunges 12" from the shoulder seam
Silk fabric bodice is 27.5" long from the shoulder seam in front (below this point the fringe is not backed by fabric, completely open/sheer through the strands of fringe)
Total length of dress including fringe 52"; the black fringe is 32" and the blue fringe is 29" long.
