Here’s a lovely early 1930s style bias cut black wool crepe dress, with a statement bow in pleated rayon. This is a fine example of the popular style of the era with it’s v neck and art deco style panelling in the bodice and skirt and the large bow which was a staple in the designs of the 1930s. The long bishop style sleeves have also lovely geometric design in the cuffs with a wooden art deco vintage buttons which also feature in the bodice on the flap between the bow. The belt has a vintage belt buckle. The dress fastens with snap fasteners in the side seam.

Mid-1930s style wool crepe darling

This lovely bottle green wool crepe mid- 1930s inspired dress is an adaptation from an earlier design of mine from 2009, here presented with long raglan cut bishop sleeves and contrasting cream silk cuffs.
The striking large cream silk bow down the front of the bodice with a deep v neckline is typical of the 1930s style and a fantastic contrast to the deep green of the mid- calf length dress. The vintage cream button attached to the little flap on the bodice with an art deco style cut panelling also adds to the eye-catching front. It also features two kick pleats down the front of the skirt. The bodice is gathered at the back. The belt has an original vintage buckle. Two darts at the back of the skirt. Snap fasteners at the side seam.

Here I present a beautiful early 1940s style burgundy wool crepe dress, featuring the very popular deep v neckline, ruched bodice and wide high waist, with decorative fabric covered buttons running down centre front. The bias cut a- line skirt and the long sleeves with padded shoulders make this the ultimate 1940s darling. Snap fastening at the side.
