20s Wearable Flapper Black Silk Velvet Dress Bust 40

A lush flapper dress in black velvet--and a wearable size!This is a classic 1920s cut, with a straight sleeveless top, a V-shaped skirt yoke at front and back, and a bias flare so that the skirt twirls when you do. She is in very good shape, especially after a century and especially for silk. She does need re-hemming. The front neckline is fraying a bit, and the center back neckline seam binding should be replaced (see photo). There is minor crushing to the velvet, spots about as bit as a dime. Overall surprisingly good shape!Measurements (of the garment; your measurements should be smaller to allow movement--fit should be loose)bust: 40 incheswaist: 33total length: 51From a nonsmoking, pet-loving environment.
