The hemline looks like it has been taken out and either lengthened or shortened, but not noticeable due to the dark color. This gown is made of fine silk georgette with gold thread design work over and under the front of the bodice, along the sides of the skirt and the back of the bodice. The piece is lined with beige silk which shows through the front and back of the bodice area and a portion of the front of the front of the gown. The gown has a gathered satin sash which fastens at the back with a bow. The sleeves are long and graceful and give this great gown the classic look of the mid to late teens.
Closure is by hooks and eyes fastening the underlay of beige and design work along the front.
This is a very handsome gown in good condition. Wearable with some care.
