empire cut dress 1930s-Style Empire Waist Column Dress With Velvet WaistbandThis vintage maxidress is done in a beautiful classic 1930s style, with a square neckline, flutter cape sleeves, and a shape that almost simulates that timeless 1930s bias cut shape, but in a more structured linen fabric.

This vintage maxidress is done in a beautiful classic 1930s style, with a square neckline, flutter cape sleeves, and a shape that almost simulates that timeless 1930s bias-cut shape, but in a more structured linen fabric. I love how the unexpected ball fringe trim on the sleeves further emphasizes their beautifully draped shape. So many thoughtful and well-executed design details went into making this dress, and its very apparent. The bodice is very fitted and shaped with darts, and at the empire waist, there is a moss green velvet waistband, which forms a bow to one side in the back— the back's asymmetry is so elegant. I can't say enough how much I love this combination of powder blue and deep moss green— it's so chic and unexpected. The powder blue color make this an excellent "Something Blue" (and "Something Old") for a bride-to-be's bridal shower or other bridal event. Horse hair in the hem to gives the skirt an amazing shape— the hem is ever-so-slightly longer in the back, giving that really full, sweeping shape. Made in the USA; no fiber contents are listed but it feels like 100% heavy linen (or linen blend).

The Rare Antique Victorian Beaded Bag and Vintage Louis Rousselet Pearl Cluster Earrings pictured are also available

Great shirt, a bit large in arms
Color: A - Moon Gray, Size: Medium
I really like the cut and texture of the shirt. The only thing I would say is it is loose in the arms unless you’re a body builder. My arms are toned, muscular, but more lean than thick, so if you like a snug sleeve this is probably not for you. I’m 5’9” 180bs for reference and wear a medium.

Check the size chart and reviews!
Color: Black, Size: 3X-Large, Color: Black, Size: 3X-Large
Bought this for my husband and if i didnt check the reviews I would ordered it too small. He normally wears a XL in T-shirts but he has very large arms so the 3XL in this fits him comfortably. The material is a bit stretchy so he could have probably taken the 2XL but I am satisfied with how the 3XL looks on him. He looks so good!

Size discrepancy
Color: Wine Red, Size: Small
I like the look and feel of this shirt, but I originally bought a medium and it was too big, so I bought a small. Both shirts are the exact same size. It is labeled on the collar as a different size, but it's the same. If anything the small is slightly larger

Happy with my purchase
Color: Black, Size: X-Large
The material is good quality and it did great in the gentle cycle of my washing machine. I hung it to dry, no dryer. Looks great.
