1930s Silk Slip Dress Vintage Silk Slip Dress Peach XS
This Peach silk slip is SO EXQUISITE, amazing taste and quality. Delicate embroidery and lace on cleavage.
Sourced in Buenos Aires, Argentina from the Estate of an amazing lady I cannot reveal her name but they called her Mamita (mummy in Spanish). I will be listing amazing nightgowns with the full "Mamita" embroidered on them.Last picture is actually Mamita, check how stylish she was! She lived between Buenos Aires and Paris and she bought most of her clothes in Paris.
There are a STUNNING cape and skirt listed from the same estate and will be listing more nightgowns and stunning silk bed jackets. (Las medidas están en pulgadas 1Pulgada=2.54cm).
Hips: 20" (9" from waist). Total Lenght from Shoulder: 44 1/2" Front- 45 1/2" Back. For your reference my mannequin is a women size Medium and It didn't fit the mannequin. Bust: 88 cm / 34.64. Waist: 66 cm / 25.98.Bust: 81.28 cm / 32. Waist: 68.58 cm / 27. Hips: 88.9 cm / 35. Hips: 90 cm / 35.43. So I guess it would fit an XS.
Antique hand made items where handmade and differ to standard sizes. Please check the measurements closely for determining fit. I do not give sizes for vintage items as women's sizes are not standardized and a majority of these dresses were homemade or specialty made to fit one person. Also if vintage items are size tagged they usually run smalller comparing to the actual sizes. A good method to check is to measure a similar item that fits and compare.
A good method is to measure a similar item that fits and compare. Please remember that Vintage Items have been previously worn and loved so a small flaw may go unnoticed. Any accessories used in the picture are not included, there are there to show how the outfit could be worn or a decorative object. I need to be honest.
I sell Vintage and Antique Clothing and I would say anything before 30s should be treated with care and worn with care. Mostly these items will be fragile especially 20s silk or Edwardian very fine Muslin. Some can not handle stress and will tear easily.Should be bought a size bigger where possible or should be a little loose on. Happy to answer any question.
