Lot Description

This lot includes three dresses.
THE FIRST
Black net lace and bias-cut satin mermaid dress with stand collar, circular frog closures, long sleeves, and left side closure.
Unlabeled
The exact date of this first dress remains uncertain. It contains various elements from 1930's design and is very well made, yet the style is difficult to date exactly. The dress would have originally been worn with a slip, which is no longer connected to this dress.
