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.

Bust 34"
Length 39"
Bottom circumference 158"
Condition: many holes and discoloration - sold for study/parts

From Me:
This has a neat beading pattern - almost like branches. The skirt is pretty full for a 1920's dress as well. It would look awesome while doing the jitterbug!
