Vintage Black Button Up Back Velvet Long Sleeve Dress

This is a true vintage dress. It was made by my grandmother - Mildred Turner. She has written several books which can be found with a google search. She passed this last year, and I have been designated to work out the details of many of her pieces. I've kept as much as I can and given away a lot to other smocking and sewing enthusiasts. There are no holes, rips or stains. Please check measurements. Button up back. When wearing, the black looks really good. Pictures always show every single thread or dust particle on black velvet, but in person, it's what you would expect. Bust - 29 approximate Waist - 29 waist
