VTG 1930s/40s Vamp Goth Silk Velvet Tulle Maxi Dress - *AS IS* - Sweetheart Gown

Vintage 1930s/40s vamp goth sweetheart silk velvet tulle maxi dress. Absolutely fantastic draping on the hips and skirt, and ruched velvet at the waist. The bodice has folded-over dagger-pointed draping on the cups, long thin black satin straps (shortened a little by the previous owner, but can be lengthened an extra inch or so).

The netting is 2 layers, over a black satin lining. Beneath that is a starched horsehair/muslin band to keep the skirt full. Has a poly invisible side zip. No rips or tears in the velvet.

The black netting is in great condition, with no major structural issues, a few holes here and there. The pink has holes, color bleed from the black, and has splotches (luckily, with the black overlay, it's not very noticeable). There are a couple of yellowed stains on the pink and on the interfacing under the skirt; it appears to be an aged spilled drink? The hem of the tulle is a little rough and feathered, but it appears to be evenly cut.

I have not tried to dry clean this in case the black bleeds further into the pink. Measurements: B 36, W 24.

Condition: **AS IS**. Color bleed and minor damage to the pink tulle underlay. See description for full details.
