A beautiful and classic velvet dress from the late 1930s or early 1940s!  This is the type of dress you can wear over and over and it will always look different because it can be accessorized numerous  different ways ! Perfect for Christmas or holiday party, but can also be worn to dinner or a party. Very versatile, it is what you make it ! The dress has small snaps along the front that start at the neck and end at the waist, this is the only opening/closure on the dress.  It also has a small line dealing that goes up the ribcage. The shoulders are slightly puffed with small pleats on the shoulder, there are also snaps on the cuff. There are these small snaps with a ribbon on the inside of the dress, I imagine it's to hold the straps of a slip in place.

CONDITION: Good
- The dress has 3 popped seams on the skirt portion of the dress, 2 on the right side and 1 on the left. Not very noticeable and an easy fix 
- Small bit of wear on the inner collar 
- The edge of the collar has been roughly stitched on, If you lift it a bit you can see the stitching. It's not very noticeable when its on (the material hides it well) It could also be hidden with a lace collar. If you are a skilled seamstress you could re-attach it. 
- There are some small areas where the velvet has been crushed, mainly on the underarms. 
- Belt loops but no belt
