Cutouts, Insets, and Embroidery

1940's, Dresses, Ladies

This post was written by Lindy Shopper.

This is such a hot little 1940’s dress and manages, at the same time, to be really beautiful – the shape and the black satin make it foxy, while the amazing floral cutouts with pink insets soften the look, tied together by tone on tone embroidery. Delicious! Auction ends tomorrow, someone snap this beauty up!

  1. Dangerous, this is close to my size….I’d only have to maybe take the waist in an inch or two, and maybe not even that-sometimes that extra inch means more danceability.
