vintage 1940s evening dress gown,
DOROTHY O'HARA Black crepe and mesh illusion neckline sheath gown
Old Hollywood
Let's quote Vogue!
“O’hara, designer for Hollywood stars. Dorothy O’hara, a sorceress at glorifying figures, does some great fashion wizardry by creating the multiple-costume dress. from an advertisement in November 1, 1946”, Vogue
Step out in true bombshell glamour.
Two kinds of fabric; that iconic 1940s crepe and a sheer sturdy mesh that makes up the top.
Cut in the most amazing draped and figure conscious silhouette that she was known for.
Back zipper to the waist, with sheer open back that snaps and ties closed.
Drama galore!
Excellent condition - cleaned and ready. Last pic shows minor "snags" in the mesh but they do not compromise the structure of the neckline.
Measures:
Clipped on the mannequin.
No stretch but meant to be worn snug.
