Red and pink chiffon vintage party dress! I'm pretty sure this is silk, I even did a thread-burn test on it, and when tested it burns/smells more like silk than anything else (not 'chemical' like a synthetic). These tests are never guarantees, just a strong indication. Classic silhouette, with back metal zip closure. Tag says "Sara's, Las Vegas Nevada". Fully lined. Gathered through the bust and down the front, with full skirt.
Picture 3 shows there is a little pull on the edge of the fabric near the bottom of the neckline. The original owner felt this was too low for her, so she had it pinned closed there. Since it was so old, the pin looked a little rusty, so I took it out to make sure there was no rust stain on the fabric (there is not). Can easily be disguised, whether or not you re-pin it, stitch it, or leave it low-cut. Overall fabulous condition for it's age! In bright-lighted examination, you can tell that there has been perspiration in the underarms, but it's so very subtle that when you have it on, no one else would notice. I also found a small 1" tear in the top layer on the lower front right, 2" up from the hem (last pic). Not noticeable to others because of the volume of fabric there, and it's on the hemmed part, so there is still a chiffon layer behind it to kind of 'mute' the tear.
I usually wear about a U.S. size 4/6, and this was too 'busty' for me. I don't have the top filled-out the way it probably should be. 37/26/full, and 40.5" long.

Is the waist a tight 26? Or could it accommodate larger
