A B O U T

An original 1920s silk day dress in a striking Art Deco floral print. Rendered in warm shades of russet brown and coral pink, the pattern features bold stylized blossoms layered over a geometric trellis motif—a perfect example of the modernist textile designs of the Jazz Age. The dress is cut in the classic straight silhouette of the 1920s, lightly shaped to the body but still relaxed, with short sleeves and a dropped waistline seam subtly defined near the hem. Contrasting solid silk is used for the smart pointed collar, sleeve cuffs, and hem border, lending the piece a tailored finish. A shallow V neckline adds a feminine touch. Slips on over the head with a bit of stretch to the fabric. 

Lightweight and fluid, this dress would have been worn for daytime socializing, shopping, or visiting, embodying both comfort and chic sophistication. The bold floral print reflects the 1920s fascination with nature interpreted through the modern lens of Art Deco design. A rare survivor of its era, this dress is as wearable as it is collectible, capturing the vibrant spirit of Jazz Age fashion. In remarkably excellent condition, clean and ready to wear.
