    Reduced $55.00! Vintage Persian dress, very heavy, very special!!

    Type: Dress
    Style: Other
    Seller's Country: USA
    I bought this dress some time ago from Ezma. It is very old, so it is in vintage condition. The fabric is gorgeous heavy taffeta underneath and a sheer net type fabric on the top. The sheer net is split in some section, but it is to be expected, not really noticeable because the lining is the same color. I spent hours and hours when my Mom was sick and in the hospital mending it by hand. There was lots of therapeutic sewing that went on here. I have never worn it. Always had ideas of making a pair of red Salwar pants to go with it, but it didn't happen.

    I am letting this gem go.

    Here are measurements:

    Bust measurement, across the bust: 37"

    Waist: 34"

    Hips (a-line, lots of room): 49"

    Length from shoulders to waist: 16 1/2"

    Waist to hemline: 29:

    Asking $75.00 Now $55.00 plus shipping

    Thanks for looking,

    Thalia

    Okay, let me know :) Hard to tell from the picture, but it is fitted at the top and flairs out. I am going to look and see if I can find a historical picture to add here.
