chiffon dress 1920s 1920s Silk Chiffon Bias Cut Day Dress – Shrimpton CoutureThis is yet another piece from that same estate that produced an important Worth cape and the woman who owned these pieces was both wealthy and well travelled. This is a wonderful bias cut, hand screened silk chiffon flapper dress. The color is slightly more vibrant in person but the overall effect is soft and romantic almost dreamy! The piece work to create the skirting in particular is extraordinary it actually used curved seams where the panels are
This is yet another piece from that same estate that produced an important Worth cape and the woman who owned these pieces was both wealthy and well travelled. This is a wonderful bias cut, hand screened silk chiffon flapper dress. The color is slightly more vibrant in person but the overall effect is soft and romantic - almost dreamy!† The piece work to create the skirting in particular is extraordinary - it actually used curved seams where the panels are inserted to create the shape! I cannot even imagine working with the fabric ot do that! A romantic caped bodice tops the almost weightless panelled skirting. The entire dress floats and moves with the barest of movement on your part. The edges are rolled and cross stitched. It is extraordinarily lovely and still strong and wearable with care. These where meant to float over a smaller frame so I have listed it as SML-MED but it is flexible in terms of size. A truly beautiful dress and in excellent condition!
Bust: 22" flat across the back from side seam to side seam
Waist: 20" flat across the back from side seam to side seam
Hips: open
Bodice: approx 18 from shoulder to dropped waist
Skirt: approx 33" from the dropped waist to bottom hem
The dress is fully lined with a pink crepe silk that feels like it was hand washed at some point but is strong and stable. The upper bodice is lined in netting. It slips over the head and has an attached waist with a jeweled clasp. Hand rolled edges and hand finished. It is in what I would consider excellent shape with no real flaws to note. Please remember that pieces of this age will have a natural patina and should not be expected to be absolutely perfect (though this is close)! It is after all almost 100 years old!

Note that antique and twenties pieces are final sale. They will be packed exceedingly well and we only sell pieces that will stand up to the stress of shipping, however, having pieces potentially shipped multiple times through multiple customs and countries is too hard on garments that are historically important and deserve to be treated with love and care. Please purchase accordingly.

Best bronzing sunscreen ever!
I have been using this for 5+ years and highly recommend it. It goes on easy, doesn’t leave streaks or a greasy film, smells so good. I apply when doing yard work, sitting by the pool, attending outdoor activities etc. and have always get a beautiful bronze tan.

Mom tested for 30+ years
1st I would like to clarify about the comments on the sprayer not working, I see the confusion and it works just fine u have to twist the nozzle a few times in no specific way. There are no instructions but just play w it eventually it'll spray
The product itself is great for a little extra sun. It smells good, pleasant and not over bearing. Its oily but once you run it in it u have no idea it's on. I actually will put on too much cuz I prefer to know its on my skin. I have a nice even tan, my palms arnt tanned *idk if thats a common issue for things like this but I was worried about that and in case anyone else is, the answer is no*
Love it, I always remember seeing this in my moms bathroom or when we go to the beach so I tried it. She's a sun God and at 56 has very nice skin. Not like a leather couch at all. She's always had very soft beautiful skin.

NO BETTER THAN THIS!
I have been using this product for several years with great results in keeping me have a terrific suntan for most of the year. The only negative is that it leaves a slight layer of orange film on the skin which, I am sure, contributes to the great suntan, but needs to be scrubbed off after using it.
