Description: Promises Kept "They had only been married two days. It was their last night together. His unit was being deployed to France. This night was to be special. Very special. She wore her very best dress. (The one he loved.) "No tears," he said. "I promise to come back if you promise to wear that dress.' Three years later, at the train station, he swept her into his arms. "You remembered?" Through tears of joy. "How could I not?' Special Occasion 40s Rhinestone Velvet Dress (NO, 3546), that I've faithfully recreated in a silk and rayon velvet. Flowered rhinestones along front and deeper V in back. If you need any additional interest, the rhinestone belt (included, but not attached) can sparkle around the hips. Twelve panels on the skirt create flow and grace. Easy on, easy off. The war was over; the honeymoon could now begin." - J Peterman Owner's Manual Women's size: 14. Color: Black.

Boxed Shipping Weight is 2 pounds 5 ounces. A note regarding vintage clothing: it is rarely perfect. It has history, was, most likely, lovingly worn and cared for and endured far more years than most of us - in most cases 70 to 100 plus years. We try to detail every imperfection, but some seam separations, discoloring and stains may escape us; however we strive to repair and clean these wonderful designs from the 20s, 30s, 40s, 50s and 60s ( I rarely dabble in post 1970 clothing). If you want perfect, I suggest you look elsewhere for newer clothing. If you want wonderful echoes of past designs and their attention to detail, we may have items that will appeal to you. Most of our listings, if not new, are repaired or mended to the best of our abilities and noted within the description. Most vintage items are professionally dry cleaned or laundered by an eco-friendly green on premises cleaner. As a result, listings prices often reflect this worthwhile investment in these garments. Their history warrants nothing less. Combining shipping charges is always our pleasure. With multiple wins or purchases, please await an invoice reflecting your discounted shipping. Excessive shipping charge overage will be refunded to buyer. Shipping calculations, I've found, are seldom correct. Sold AS IS with No Returns.
