Lovely 30's periwinkle blue gown in rayon crepe with a draped neckline and halter straps of cream silk trimmed in white and silver beads with scattered rhinestones. The attached matching belt buckles in the back with a wonderful Art Deco rhinestone buckle. The large triangular stones photographed as a dark gray color, but they are clear rhinestones. There is some unevenness in the overall color on the crepe, and a tiny beige dot near the right front side, and a few missing beads and rhinesto ...click for details

Perfect 1950's alligator handbag in the best possible shape, the Kelly bag, popularized by actress Grace Kelly in the 50's. This one is by Vassar, and it's beautifully made with highly polished black alligator outside and plain black leather inside, with a zipper compartment and a side pocket beneath it. The bottom has little brass feet to prevent wear. The alligator skins are in beautiful condition, including the straps, and the clasp works perfectly. The brass finish has some tiny ...click for details

1960's hand knit wool dress in a muted olive green color. It has lots of detailing for such a simple dress, such as the matching knit belt woven through slots in the skirt, pointed edges on the skirt and collar, and tiny green buttons at the back opening. About a size 4-6, it measures, unstretched, 33" bust, 26" waist, 37" hips, and 38" overall length. A very wearable style, it's in excellent condition.

Fabulous 50's cotton Mexican circle skirt with brightly painted Aztec gods and geometric forms outlined with sequins. There are a few sections where sequins have come loose or are missing, but most of them are still intact, so the effect is pretty dazzling. The colors are very bright and unfaded, and the skirt is signed by the painter. The waistband has had the usual side openings closed, and a metal zipper inserted which makes it hang more smoothly, but it's not adjustable. The skirt me ...click for details

Long 60's dress by Mr. Dino in a wild cherries and daisies print in the style of Pucci. Of a polyester or nylon knit, the tag says size 10, but it's more like a six or eight. It measures, unstretched, approx. 16" across the shoulders, 22" outside sleeve length, 36" bust, 33" waist, 38" hips, and 52 1/2" overall length. A wild and crazy shirt waist style, it's in excellent condition.

Late 30's green and white dress in rayon voile, in a very cute style with lots of detail. It opens down the front with white plastic buttons that go to the waist, and then becomes a placket down the skirt. About a size 6, it measures approx. 15" across the shoulders, 36" bust, 26" waist, up to 39" hips, 15" waist length, and 43" overall length. I've shown it over a plain white slip (not included). There are a number of small scattered darkish spots, two near ...click for details

Lovely 20s dress in a soft yellow silk chiffon with deep gold metallic lace trim and appliques with lavender and mint green flowers and leaves. I photographed the dress without its lavender cotton liner because the liner is so much smaller than the dress that it didn't fit on my form. I'm giving only the dress measurements, but would include the liner with the dress in the sale. About a size 2-4, the dress measures approx. 14" across the shoulders, up to a 33 1/2" bust, 32" ...click for details
