#V-753- Black and Purple Satin Wrap Dress - $30.00

Era - 1940s?
Measurements - 44 inches long, fits 36 inch bust, 27 waist, 40 hips
Label - none, appears to be handmade
Fabric - rayon satin with soft cotton feel on the inside.

This was probably meant as a robe, but it's a little shortter than average robe length, so I think that it would make a great dress. I'm also guessing on the age because I don't know anything about the background. The fabric feels and looks like a 1940s satin. It wraps and ties on the inside and snaps on the outside - you might need a more secure fastener on the outside if you wear it as a dress. It has topstitching on the neckline and on the ends of the sleeves.

Condition - Excellent condition, no flaws seen.
