Couldn't load pickup availability
A striking 1940s dress in a likely blue rayon, beautifully hand-beaded from the chest to the waist. Time has left its own unique mark — a solvent has altered some areas of the fabric to a gentle pink tinge, which strangely complements the overall look. Despite this colour variation, the dress remains in excellent structural order with no holes. A true statement piece of 1940s fashion, showcasing both craftsmanship and character.

So glad I bought this, so sassy I love it!

Literally perfect, can’t wait to come in again!!!

I wanted a red dress to wear to a nice dinner, since I've gained weight and none of my nicer clothes fit anymore. The moment I put this on, I felt great and even felt a little sexy, which I haven't really felt before.
Also, Kayla was the one who served me and she was really lovely, she kept my confidence up as I struggled to find something at first, and then really hyped me up when I finally found it.
