1920s – 1930s Silk Georgette Bias Cut Dress 
 
Dating From late l920s early 1930s 
 
Label no label Handmade hand finished 
 
Measurements: The dress is cut on the bias width of the fabric 
Which means the dress gives across the width and means that it can be put on over the head without an opening, the wider the wearer is the shorter the dress would be. I have styled the dress on our size 12 mannequin, because it is a bias-cut dress it is hard to give the measurement’s. I would say the dress could be worn by sizes 10 12 14
