This is a place for any extant garments in private collections from about 1941 back. There is no beginning date. The only rule is that it can't be currently in a museum and must be before the bombing of Pearl Harbor. I mostly post items I've seen on ebay, etsy, or other auction sites so we will continue to have a record of them for research purposes. If you have antique clothing in your collection, please, email me pictures of them and I will gladly add them to this site.

Lace Jumper 1920's
From the seller:
This Lovely 1920's Mixed Light Ecru Cutwork Linen Needlelace with a pretty Deco Nouveau Rose Linen Print Frock has a flattering Slim Sacque Shape for the bodice with Very Dropped Waist & Gathered Skirt.
Gorgeous Bold Art Deco Abstract Floral Hand Embroidered Design in Silk on the Linen Trim, with Varying shades of Rose for the Skirt..
Pullover style. The Linen is very lightweight, but not sheer. Vtg Linen & Velvet Rose Brooch for accent.
I would consider this Garment to be a MEDIUM.
Measurements are EXACT taken flat:
Bust 38"
Drop Waist 38"
Length Dress 46"
(model is 5'10")
(Jewelry accessories NOT included!)
EXCELLENT VINTAGE CONDITION!
There are Quite a few small repairs on the Cutwork lace. These are in the linen flower areas and are reweaves, or small interior patches. There is general overall surface wear on the dress as you would expect. The dress looks like it was worn quite often, but came through the dry cleaning very well . One or two small holes in the skirt fabric. No dark stains, or other damage.
Otherwise it is Sound, ***has been dry cleaned***, pressed and is ready to wear.
From Me:
This is one of those so hideous it's rather pretty pieces. It's clearly homemade and I had to add it just as a record.
