The ultimate "It-Girl" vintage find for your next escape. This authentic 1940s slip dress is crafted from a buttery, sand-washed silk in a rare soft primrose yellow. It features a quintessential 1930 high-pointed waist and a perfectly draped bias-cut skirt that skims the body in all the right places. Adorned with scattered, floral applique in pastel blue, lavender, and gold, pink this dress is a masterclass in effortless romance. It’s the kind of piece you’ll reach for year after year—rare enough for a collector, but wearable enough for a sunset dinner. • The Vibe: Sun-Drenched Minimalist / Cottagecore / Dreamy Vintage. • The Fit: Flattering bias-cut silhouette that hits at a sophisticated midi length; delicate spaghetti straps and a soft sweetheart neckline. • The Details: Scalloped hemline, and hand embroidery to the front chest. • How to Wear: Style it with a straw basket bag and leather slides for a day at the flower market, or dress it up with gold kitten heels and a sheer shawl for a summer wedding. • Condition: Excellent washed ready to wear. The tiny flowers scattered are added later to hide some imperfections. There is a fold line near the hem which is visible. Measurements & Sizing Under front : 16inch / 40cm Underarm back : 15/ 39cm Waist : 28inch / 70cm Length : 39inch / 100cm Please note: As these are authentic antique pieces, all sales are final. We provide extensive measurements and photos to ensure a perfect fit—please don't hesitate to ask for more details before purchasing! 🤍 • Accessories: Unless otherwise stated, any accessories in photos are not included; they are used to show styling options. • Vintage Nature: Antique items have an element of "oldness" even if unworn and will not look like brand-new modern clothing. • Flaws: Expect minor flaws like loose stitching or age fading. While I try to list all flaws, tiny pinholes or minor breaks in lace can occasionally be missed. • Care for Pre-1930s Items: 1920s silk and Edwardian muslin are fragile and cannot handle stress. These should be worn with care and ideally bought a size larger for a loose fit. Shipping Information • UK: Sent Tracked & Signed (First Class for under 2kg, Parcelforce for over 2kg). International: All overseas postage is Tracked & Signed. Please note that as we also operate an overseas branch, some items may be dispatched from that location; these will still be sent via a fully tracked and signed service. • Customs: Customers are responsible for all duties and customs fees in their country. • Europe Notice: Due to issues since Brexit, please monitor your tracking constantly. I cannot be responsible for the parcel once it leaves my possession, and returned items can take up to 90 days to arrive back. Let’s share the responsibility of watching the tracking progress!
