1930's Evening Dress
Wow! Are you ready for this? This is a rose colored, rhinestone trimmed evening dress. Actually the previous owner said she wore this dress to tea dances held every Sunday afternoon at a local hotel tea room. In the 30's she wore a ruffled white blouse under the dress. Today it's up to you. The dress is definitely for a petite lady. It measures 30 inches, 26 inches, and 32 inches. The shawl collar narrows from 3 1/2 inches wide in the back to 2 inches wide at the waist. Three rows of rhinestones trim the bodice as well as one floppy flower. There should be 2 but one got lost over the years. The dress is cut on the bias and measures 55 inches long from the shoulder to the hem. It measures 14 inches across the back. The pictures do not do this dress justice. There is all the 30's styling and detailing you could hope for in a dress of this kind.

Deep Pink, Gold Lace Beaded Flapper Dress
There are few things as easily recognizable than the short, beaded dresses of the 1920's flapper era. This is one of the best. The dress is a deep fuchsia pink chiffon dress with beading that weighs nearly a full pound on its own. The dress has a bust measurement of 34 and a hip measurement of 36/38 inches. It has a side closing of 9 tiny snaps from underarm to hip. The top is plain until just above the hips where there are butterfly insets of gold lace. Each butterfly is outlined in 3 rows of silver-colored and deep pink beads. Five deep pink flowers are centered in the lace and each flower has a rhinestone center. These tiny flowers are also scattered over the dress. The hip is outlined with three rows of pink and silver beading and then is full from the hips to the scalloped hem. The scalloped hem is outlined in three rows of beading and the gathered skirt has beading in the form of vines with the tiny pink and rhinestone flowers at the end of each vine. Each of the 8 lace inserts around the skirt is outlined with beading as are the four lace inserts above the hips. There is wear on the dress and it would need additional support if you were to wear it. The skirt measures 19 inches from the hips to the hem. It is a wonder that such a fragile and colorful dress has survived. It was a treasured heirloom and should certainly enhance someone's collection.

1920's Lace overblouse
If you're looking for a one of a kind piece, this is it. The fabulous overblouse or tunic is openweave with a jewel neckline. This is a very delicte pattern and yet the piece itself is very sturdy. The jewel neckline is banded in a brown ribbon. The first 8 inches are lined. The lining in the back is hemmed but it isn't in the front. The lining itself is starting to give way but the tunic is in beautiful condition. The tiny lingerie ribbons and snaps are still in place at the shoulders. The bust measures 38 inches and the hips, 44 inches. From the front neckline to the bottom is 27 inches and the back measures from neckline to bottom, 28 1/2 inches. The bottom of the tunic overblouse is not hemmed. The naural scalloping of the lace makes up the edge. The sleeve measures 24 inches and the pattern runs up the sleeves almost to the shoulder. I have never seen another piece quite like this. It is so delicate and feminine and yet so wearable. I took the photos of the blouse on a dress form which has a blue covering. This makes the beige of the blouse really stand out and you can see how open the weave is. This is one for a collection.
