Rue du 4 Septembre- Paris. It's only the black silk lining that isn't perfect. It's all there, but it's shredding.
Label is still firmly attached.
There is a black lace peplum under fitted waist which continues over shoulders and neck and down front. Piece closes with hooks at front and really has no measurements as it just drapes over shoulders, but shoulders are small, so please take note. Black silk satin bows and ribbons at back and front waist. Also seen in the 1850-1920s category. Hartnell began designing clothes in the early 1920s, working briefly with Lucile before opening his own premises in London and first collection in 1927.
