1940s Cotton Organdy Dress (XS/S)
DESCRIPTION
Homemade cotton organdy dress with A-line silhouette in adorable light purple check. Features front button closure and side metal talon zipper.
This dress is one of many in my inventory that were made by two sisters in rural North Georgia. From the 1930s-1960s, they managed to expertly sew hundreds of shirtwaist dresses ranging in all colors of the rainbow. The dresses sat untouched for nearly 50 years. Dress has been washed, but has a few tiny faint rust marks and a linear mark on right shoulder from storage (pictured)
Would best fit a women’s size XS-S. Measurements lying flat (double for full measurement): 14” shoulder to shoulder, 17” armpit to armpit, 13” across waist, 20” across hips, and 39” length from mid shoulder.
DETAILS
100% cotton. Semi sheer
From the 1940s-50s
Hand wash and hang dry
