1930's amazing chiffon dress is as pretty as a painting. The background is pale gray and has tulips of various colors print on the gray. The tulips are scattered everywhere and large groups of them appear like a light breeze blowing them around. The top of the dress has a blousey front and the sleeves are elbow length. The back is shaped in a deep V. The bias skirt has a slimming appearance, then flows into a very full and graceful lower area that hangs gracefully. The dress is so beautiful. I like it very much.
