Fabric is a soft acetate-nylon jersey knit — smooth and comfortable like a tee, with gentle stretch and effortless drape. Finished with a smooth back zip closure. Dramatic wing sleeves flow like a cape with closed undersides, creating a sculptural silhouette that moves beautifully.
Measurements (laid flat) Waist: 11.5″ (23″ doubled) Pit to pit: 14″ (28″ doubled) Length: 38.5″ (shoulder hem to bottom hem) No stretch at all to this fabric, so definitely check measurements before buying. Definitely a synthetic fabric, but I’m not sure which. Based on the construction, I believe this dress was handmade. My best guess on age is c. 1950s or 60s, judging from the silhouette. Feel free to reach out with any questions before purchase.
