Vintage fit and flare red lace dress custom-made-30”W

1950s vintage red lace dream dress, expertly made by a highly regarded Brooklyn seamstress. Fit and flare, V neck. This was purchased at an estate sale and went through two rounds at the dry cleaner to get her into selling shape. Very good condition—small stain at waist and within the lining. The latter is not noticeable at all when wearing. Slight differentiation in hem length. Metal side zipper. Would also make a wonderful wedding dress. This was definitely a custom piece and probably best for someone with a smaller bust/wider band size. I tried it on as a 34D and got, well…a bit stuck 🤷🏻‍♀️. Measurements: 38” bust 30” waist 43” length 6 3/4” armhole
