- Description
- Dress, c.1925-1929. Navy satin rayon. Straight cut, long sleeves, round neckline, belt, and embroidery applique. Slightly flared knee length skirt, straps hang from shoulders. There is no collar on the rounded neckline. There is a small placket closure with a snap at the left shoulder. Coming from each shoulder seam is a one inch hanging strap. It extends to the dropped waist where there is a band of art deco style embroidery appliqued to the dress. It is brightly coloured in brown, orange, yellow, blue, and navy blue. The straps are tacked down here, with three pleats hanging from the ends. A few inches above the embroidery there are thin waistband sashes sewn into the side seams. The sleeves are gathered into cuffs trimmed with embroidered ribbon in blue, pink and white on a black velvet background. It does not match the design of the band across the front. There are self fabric ties on the sleeve ends, tied at their base, but no opening in the cuff. Attached at the dropped waistline, the skirt is flared slightly in one panel, using a semi-circular flounce. The back of the dress is all one piece, without any shaping and without a break at the waistline. There is a six inch hem at the back and a small double fold at the front. Most seams are finished with pinking. A price tag on tie on left sleeve reads on one side: "18 / 139[or 137]" and on the other side: "fgg / 14.00[crossed out] / $12.00/8." This may mean it is a size eight, selling for $12.00 (marked down from $14.00).

- Dress, c.1920-1925. Beige rayon crepe with three purple glass brooches. Straight cut, round neckline, plain back, long sleeves, belt, and calf length pleated skirt. The collar starts at right shoulder, goes around the back, and drops through two buttonholes on the left, forming two ties held in place by a brooch. Each brooch has three tear drop 'petal' rhinestones, and a clear round one in the centre. They are set into a metal backing with a safety pin to secure it to the dress. The bottom of the bodice puffs slightly at the dropped waist, accompanied by long ties sewn into the side seams. Below the waistline there are two eye-shaped cut outs with an ecru facing and an olive cotton lining. On the narrow section of each cut out there is a brooch; each is missing one of its purple stones. The long sleeves with small cuffs have a placket that closes with a snap fastener, and a small pleat at each elbow. Below this, there is the skirt with box pleats along the front. The front hem is a narrow machine-stitched edge, but at the back there is a 6 cm hem. The dress has a cotton muslin lining on the front inside of the bodice attached to the waistline, to allow its small puff. Attached to the waistline under the cut out section, there is a band of the same material that lines the cut out section. The pleats of the skirt are attached to this. Attached to the right sleeve cuff is an inspection tag. On the bottom it reads "Deekelbaum & Eisenberg. Montreal."
