It definitely feels like silk, splashed with a scenic design in turquoise, cocoa brown, dusty pink, and ivory. Scattered through the abstracted floral and foliage motifs are small sketched figures — chasing with what appear to be long-handled nets. The bodice features a draped, twisted surplice detail at the neckline that gathers into a soft knot at side of the bust, with short set-in sleeves shirred at the shoulder and boosted with original shoulder pads. A slim self-fabric belt cinches the natural waist above a gently flared bias cut skirt. Zips up the side with original metal zipper. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn excellent condition, freshly dry cleaned and ready to wear. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e✂️ M E A S U R E M E N T S\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBust: up to 36\"\u003cbr\u003ewaist: up to 27\"\u003cbr\u003eHips: open \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTotal length: 46\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFits a small \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLabel: none remaining \u003cbr\u003eMaterial: silk or rayon crepe, feels like silk to me but typically rayon was used during this time period. \u003cbr\u003eCondition: excellent, freshly dry cleaned and ready to wear.
