{"product_id":"1920s-black-crepe-and-cream-lace-slip-dress","title":"1920s Black Crepe and Cream Lace Slip Dress","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis original 1920s slip dress is a particularly lovely example of lingerie from the period. Tailored from high-quality inky black man-made crepe, most likely rayon, it has a softly flowing A-line silhouette that falls to just above the ankle. The bust is formed from delicate black lace backed with beige crepe, creating a subtle nude-illusion effect beneath the pattern. The original straps had deteriorated with age, so these have been carefully replaced with fresh silk ribbon sourced from V V Rouleaux, the renowned London ribbon specialist, closely respecting the delicacy and proportions of the original design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe slip is unlined and has no fastenings, simply pulling on over the head. Its simplicity makes it particularly easy to wear today, either as originally intended as lingerie or styled as a sheer evening dress. In excellent vintage condition; the crepe remains strong, the lace is beautifully preserved and there are no issues of any note beyond the sympathetic replacement of the straps. There are no surviving labels although this is a very well made piece with fine fabrics and hand finishing throughout. We believe it is best suited to approximately a UK 8 or US 4. Please refer to the sizing information below to ensure the best fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMEASUREMENTS\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBUST - 36 in.
