{"product_id":"40s-black-cocktail-dress-shirred-medium","title":"40s Black Cocktail Dress Shirred by Original Nan Parker","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis 40s dress originally had a large yoke of black netting, framed by the band of black crepe that still encircles the neck creating a vee in front. Net is often fragile, and only fragments remain in the neckline seams. But the dress is still quite wearable as-is, and perhaps sexier than before. The bodice has very short raglan sleeves that are cuffed at outer edge of the shirred and padded shoulders. The bodice is shaped by being gathered into the center row of buttons, extending into a peplum that is shortest in center front, then curves around the swingy skirt on both sides before disappearing into the two back skirt seams. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSIZE: No size label. The bodice is longer waisted than usual - if there is more decolletage than you want, you can take a small tuck in the halter-type strap around the neck, as I did for one of the photos.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBust 36\" (91. 5 cm) \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eApproximate waist 30\" (76 cm) \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHips 39\" (99 cm) \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBodice length from shoulder seam to approximate waist 17\" (43 cm) \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSkirt length from approximate waist 27\" (68. 5 cm) \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSweep 50\" (127 cm) \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFABRIC\/COLORS: Black crepe\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTAGS: Original Nan Parker, California\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCLOSURES: The dresses closes in front with thirteen self-fabric domed shank buttons with fabric loops, with a sturdy black enameled hook \u0026amp; eye at the top.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCONDITION: Long-gone-missing upper bodice netting, as discussed above.
