Stunning 1920s Art Deco Cocktail Dress and waterfall jacket created from Coffee and Black Chantilly lace.
The suit has been shown with a peach silk under slip.
The gown has a beautiful neckline, which is scalloped and a little stiff to frame the neck.
These garments were worn over a silk slip of a contrasting colour, typically peach but I've seen them over a pure white silk slip and the affect was nothing short of stunning. This set is over 100 years old and although its wearable it should be worn cautiously as the fabric is very delicate. There are a number of repairs please see photos.
The jacket is wonderfully cut, with a dainty waterfall front and dainty darts to the back to draw it in.
The garment is unsized so I have given measurements taken when the dress was laid flat. These are given as a guide.

There is a slight stretch to the fabric, please remember that any stretch will probably take up a little of the length.
The bodice of the dress fits into the waist then flows snugly over the hips to give a stunning bias cut skirt made up of a chevron panel to the front of the skirt and one at the back. Please note that the dress has no zip, but will easily pull over the head.
