Late Teen's/Early 1920's Dress with Beading

From the seller:

Beautiful True Vintage Antique Flapper Dress in hard to find large to xlarge size. This has a tremendous about of beading that is in excellent condition- it is layered with slits on sides. If someone is good with reworking, this would be a fabulous dress, below you will find detailed flaws. I have tried to cover every inch so you know what you are buying, over all the stains are the worst part, and they may be able to be cleaned. So I would call it Fair Vintage Condition !!!!! . !!!!!DON'T MISS OUT!!!!!…. I am hoping that this will go to a good home and not end up as a halloween costume. Ideally I would like a professional costumer or seamstress to end up with this. Someone who will really appreciate it. YOU ARE BUYING AS IS, FOR REPAIR

From Me:

Remember to double the measurements when you read them - they were taken flat across, not around. I find the beading interesting - I'm curious if the "gold" beads to one side are intentional or not. Since they aren't mixed with the "silver" ones to the other side, my guess is that the two tone beading was on purpose.

I'd put this one at 1919 at it's earliest but more towards 1921 for it's most common.
