Shown with 1940s sheer black blouse, also available in my shop.
Excellent vintage condition. All sequins and beading appears to be intact.

Fit notes: Fits the model well if a little loosely.
About the designer: Mary McFadden was a pioneering American fashion designer known for her innovative pleating techniques and luxurious fabrics, creating timeless pieces that exuded elegance and sophistication.
