Unbelievably beautiful! This delicate 1930s sheer mesh gown is a bit of a wounded bird but still very wearable and a real stunner. Gorgeous spider web-like netting in classic black, it has impeccable paneled construction with a wide pointed waist and a hip skimming skirt that flares out for a good sweep. Soft and feminine with voluminous cuffed long sleeves and a ruffled sailor-esque collar with an adorable bow at the keyhole neckline, it's the perfect balance of sweetness and seduction. A fun piece to style, pair it with classic black undergarments or a slip, or play with something a little more layered. Due to the delicate nature of the mesh, it does have some visible mends and small tears/pulling throughout, and we would recommend leaving room in measurements as it is a pull on style with no real closures. No labels, well made circa 1930s.
