- Description
- Dress, c.1925-1929. Forest green crepe with beige silk gauze. Straight cut, long sleeves, beige jabot, waist ties, pocket with beige flaps, pleated knee length skirt. The V neck has a beige silk gauze jabot hanging from it, tacked together at four places to maintain its drape. At the back there is a bow attached to the jabot. The sleeves have a small pleat at the elbow. At their ends they have chiffon cuffs which also extend into ties that are tied together in a square knot. At the dropped waist, there are ties sewn into side seams to tie in the back. Right beneath the ties there is a rounded patch pocket on the right front with a gauze triangle flap. At the centre front of the skirt, there is an upside-down chevron shaped insert with an inverted box pleat in the centre and one on each side. The basting threads holding the pleats together at the bottom are still present. The skirt extends to knee length. On the back, there is no decoration or shaping. The seams are french. A price tag hangs from the right cuff with "$12.00" handwritten on it.
- Object History
- This dress was part of a collection of dresses acquired from a dry goods store in the Okanagan. The dresses were mainly "new" old stock from the 1920s, from two Rand’s Dry Goods stores in Penticton and Summerland, B.C. The stores closed down in 1930. The dresses are estimated to date from circa 1925 to 1930.

- Dress, c.1925-1929. Pale orange crepe and pale orange with blue, teal, and red dots. Draped neckline with false undershirt, long sleeves, waist ties, pleated knee length skirt. The collar of this dress extends down the left side as a hanging panel. On the right, there is a square rever in pale orange with blue, teal, and red dots. It crosses over to meet the left side of the opening, but is left open to drape in half of a V neck shape. The dotted panel attaches to the left side front at the waist, where it is edged with a row of five clear plastic buttons. Under the front opening, the false undershirt in the dotted fabric has a rounded neckline. It extends to the waistline, but it is replaced on each side front with white cotton. On the 'main' shirt there is a false pocket opening on the right front. The sleeves have a small pleat at the elbow, and a cuff with a placket opening that closes with a snap. At the dropped waist there are ties sewn into side seams. The skirt front is covered in small pleats. The entire back is straight cut, without decoration. The seams are finished with a serger. At the right sleeve cuff, there is the remains of a paper tag. There is also a price tag on the right rever that has "C 13 g / $11.00" handwritten on it.
