This 30s evening gown is - simply put - stunning.  Dark, navy blue silk chiffon.  A simple silhouette with a blouson bodice and straight skirt.  The sleeves and collar are decorated with small, off-white (almost ivory) fabric flowers with a three-dimensional texture.  Side snaps and back neck buttons.  The original, bias cut under slip is included and (in our opinion) is lovely enough to be worn as a dress itself. 
NOTE:  The slip does close in the back, but it was a tad too small in the bust for the dress form.
