A smart everyday late 1940s early 1950s day dress, in lightweight burgundy rayon imitating slubbed silk. With loose fitting bodice, deep pleat at shoulders, and button fastening plus side metal zip. The skirt features flat basque to front and back, with gathers at hip for fulness. Unlined, colour is most like close ups, a cranberry red rather than dark pink.

Chest of garment 42"

waist 28

Mid shoulder to waist 16"

Skirt 31"

Good condition, a very small blemish at chest, small mend to skirt which blends with the surface texture well, and little catches to the fabric at side seam
