As I sit here working on some listings, I am doing a rewatch of “Mad Men”. This dress is AMAZING! I could absolutely see this on one of the characters in the first or second season. You will get so many compliments wearing this frock!

The fabric is unknown, but I’m 98% sure it’s silk. If it isn’t silk, its something really nice, and is lined with what I believe is organza. This is a sheath style dress with built in overskirt, elbow length kimono sleeves with gussets, and princess seams with teensy ruching on either side of the bodice. It has its original belt
