Lovely vintage late 1930s to early 1940s plus sized navy blue floral rayon crepe dress and jacket set. The retro dress features the sweetest braided neckline of rosettes with tucks. The 3/4 length bishop sleeves button at the elbow, while the waist has the floral design cut out and overlapping with the solid navy blue in the skirt. The open belted jacket has great drape, the shawl collar repeats the floral pattern, and snaps closed at the waist with an attached belt that can snap in the front of the waist, or at the back.
Label: none found, a tag with the original owner's name, Mrs. Callicot
Condition: excellent minus. One small nip in the tucks at the neckline that is hidden, a seam pop at the pleat in the skirt.
