1940's Black Beaded Designer Evening Dress
This very well made vintage designer evening dress is just stunning... Circa 1940's... it's made of black crepe with a beaded waist, metal side zipper and is unlined. The double straps tie at the top of the shoulders. A classic style that will never go out of fashion.

1940's Brown & Yellow Floral Dress
Here's another adorable vintage dress from the 40's. The color and the matching buttons are just beautiful... in a brown & yellow with green & white details. The buttons match the print & the color. Side metal zipper. This is unlabeled so we're not sure if it's rayon or silk. It's not sheer but it's nice and flowy, unlined and no padded shoulders.

1940's Cinema Mink Puff Dress
Here's a a rare & so adorable vintage 1940's dress by the Cinema label. They made clothing for the movie industry here in California in the 40's & 50's. It has a removable beige mink fur ball & bow on the front, & a metal zipper on one side. Movie clothing always have the actors name written on the inside, usually next to the tag. This one has been marked out next to the label. It does not show through to the outside. We have no idea which movie this was used in.

1940's Sheer Teal Fluttery Dress
This is a gorgeous vintage 40's dress made of teal sheer print either silk or rayon chiffon. It has a matching tie belt, and the waist has some small delicate elastic at the waist. The skirt is sewn so beautifully with a jagged or zigzag hem or bias cut that flares out so nicely.
