Vintage Tennis Dress in Cotton 1930s/1940s
This is a vintage tennis dress dating I think from the 1930/1940s, in embroidered cotton. It has a fitted waist and flared skirt and cap sleeves of broderie anglaise. There is also a collar with butterfly motifs. The front and back sections are embroidered in white and have a design of butterflies and sprays of flowers. The skirt section is attached with attractive curved seaming which adds interest to the garment. There are no side seam or back openings, the garment is designed to slip on over the head.
The fabric used for this garment is very reminiscent of bedspreads of an earlier era, and I do wonder if this garment was made from one during the second world war when clothing was rationed and a tennis dress would be considered a luxury!
The measurements are as follows
Bust measured flat 36 inches
Waist “ ‘“ 35 inches
Shoulder to hem 39 inches
Shoulder 5 inches
The dress is in very good condition, the only flaw I can find is a small brown spot on the back near the shoulder. Postage for this item is free within the United Kingdom. This is by signed for delivery and includes insurance. INTERNATIONAL BUYERS PLEASE CONTACT US FOR OVERSEAS POSTAL CHARGES BEFORE PAYING FOR THIS ITEM.
