Description
The pine green wool of this early 1920’s dress is embellished with elaborate green cord frogs trimmed with whimsical balls of fur! The front of the dress is visually simple in construction, so as not to compete with the frog detailing. The three-quarter sleeves have tiny turned up cuffs. In back, the wonderful construction is more visible, with a center panel ending in a point below the waist and pleats on either side of it. The dress is unlined and opens down the front center, with only the frogs and one snap at the waist as fasteners. This amazing dress has no significant flaws, excepting a loose stitch here and there and a very slight overall fading of the wool, and is in very good to excellent condition.
