This elegant 1930's gown, rendered in the most classic shade of pink rayon silk, set off by cream and taupe floral lace accents, is just the piece to welcome to your lingerie collection.
The elegant V shaped neckline is framed by a border of softly scalloped lace, which joins centrally with a simple stitch above a delicate keyhole lace design. The eye-catching shoulder straps, feature three braided straps, which join the top of the bodice beneath lace panels. The décolletage is framed by gathered smocking stitches along each yoke, which create draped pleats along either side of the bust-line, joining the central smocking stitch panel below the bust. The armholes are framed by lace edgings. Finished with a bias cut along the length of the skirt line and a V shaped backline edged with lace, this gown skims the silhouette whilst showcasing the iconic design of the era.
