30s 40s brown, polka dot, rayon dress & jacket. Really cute & versatile set! Belgian chocolate background w/ creamy polka dots. Shirring on the shoulders & soft, era appropriate, shoulder padding. Sleeves come together in a playful puff. Buttons on the bust & side snap closure. Belt loops but belt is missing. Jacket has puffed shoulders & button closure. Likely homemade. Freshly laundered & ready to wear.
Issues: Overall good condition. There is some yellowing on the back, near the neck, that did not come out of 2 soaks. A lot of yellowing did lift so, could fully come out with another soak. There are a couple nibbles here & there but, not many. They are isolated & stable. The front neckline of the dress has some hand done mending.
