Condition: Another fantastic dress! This is a navy rayon, with what I will call textured (or quilted?) bodice of scalloped shapes. This is aslo on the pleated swag that comes off the waistline. The skirt is a smooth rayon. The bodice is lined in a blue acetate, and has a side metal zip. I'd say this was home sewn. The neckline and underams are free from any discolorations or wear.

Navy Rayon Dress with Lace on Shoulders

  • Bust: 38
  • Waist: 30
  • Hip: 40
  • Back of Neck to Waistline: 16
  • Waist to Hem: 25
  • Lower Width: 62

Description:Stunning navy rayon day dress is a slim style with cotton lace decorating the shoulders and bodice. The dress is emi sheer, unlined, no pockets, and has a side metal zip. The dress also has light shoulder pads. The dress is in excellent condition, but it seems like there is an ever so light fade on the tops of the shoulders on the lace. Also, the hem has been folded up to make the skirt shorter (I think you can take it out without leaving a line), and there are a few pin holes on the front neckline of the dress (most likely from a pin or somthing like that.) Otherwise perfect! Clean and ready to wear!



Elegant Black Rayon Dress with Woven Like Skirt
Item Number: DRESS6829
COST: $60.00
Measures:
  • Bust: 36
  • Waist: 28 (tight 30)
  • Hip: 38
  • Shoulder: 16
  • Back of Neck to Waistline: 15.5
  • Waist to Hem: 28
  • Lower Width: 60
  • Tag: McKettrick Classics
Condition: Uniquely style black matte finish rayon dress -- it has rhinestone buttons up the front, a side metal zip, and what looks like a woven skirt. Sort of hard to explain, but in an almost checkerboard pattern, there are flaps of fabric which are not sewn down, giving the skirt a woven feel. Dress is not lined, but the rayon is a middle/heavy weight that is not see through. Overall the dress is in excellent condition, there is light wear on the shoulder seams, but this is from storage, not from being worn and abused. The underarms are clean and the dress does not have any water marks. Very unique and stylish!

Exquisite Edwardian or Victorian Black Wool Walking Suit
Item Number: SUIT45102
COST: $85.00 SALE 65
Measures:
  • Bust: 36
  • Waist: 28/30

  • Shoulder: 15.5
  • Sleeve: 23.5
  • Back of Neck to Jacket Hem: 33
  • Waist to Hem: 38
  • Lower Width: 72
  • Tag: None
Condition: This is a suit to treasure! I am not sure if the jacket is original Victorian, or if it was made at a latter date for a costume. I do believe the skirt is bonifide Victorian or Edwardian era though. Both pieces are wool, the jacket is a heavier suit weight with corded trim on the edges and has black velvet trim and buttons. One of the velvet buttons in the front is fraying and will get worse with repeted buttoning and un buttoning. There is also a small repair on the back belt (which is velvet) on the coat. It is partially lined in satin. Skirt has hooks and eyes on the side and is not lined. I did not find any holes in the wool. This is an amazing suit at an amazing price!
