Vintage 1940’s stunning Navy dress made by Couture Designer ‘ Herbert Sondheim ‘ New York. Created in an effortlessly chic sheer rayon in Navy.

One of the most fabulous silhouettes we have ever seen !

 

’ Herbert Sondheim ‘ began in 1923 by 1930 he was the company known for its beautifully made garments and stylish pieces which were sold to only a select few stores. He didn’t create garments by the masses which made them all the more special. He went onto become a leader of seventh avenue, he was one of the original founders of the fashion originators guild in 1931. He championed fabric rationing through ww2. 

A stunning piece to add to any vintage loving ladies wardrobe. A piece with a fabulous label behind its history. A true staple that an assortment of accessories would work with for any occasion.
