1950s Pink Taffeta DOLL DRESS & BONNET ( 9 in L)

Description: 1950s pink taffeta dress and matching bonnet. This dress style seems to be of an earlier period, 1930s, but the sewing details tell a different story. There is ample zig zag stitching in the dress. While zig zag stitching was available to home seamstresses in the 1930s, it was not common. Zig zag stitching became more prevalent in the 1950s on home sewing machines. So, there is a slight possibility that this dress could be from the 1930s, but we are going to say it is from the 1950s and was perhaps sewn from an earlier doll style pattern. Both situations are very plausible. This dress is machine sewn. There are faint rust type spots, approximately 4 that we counted, on the back. 1 spot on the lace at the back hem, and 1 spot on the front lace/hem, see pics. The sleeves once were gathered with elastic thread, but the elastic has since stretched out. Nice square, simulated yoke with lace on front bodice. 1 back button closure.

What does FLAT MEASURED mean? We measure the garment laying flat so we are only measuring the front width. For the entire measurement of the garment around the waist, around the bodice, etc, double the measurement listed. Measure around your doll with a flexible tape measure for the best results. For example, a 4 inch flat measured waist is approximately 8 inches around the entire garment, so a doll of no bigger than an 8 inch waist could wear that item. All props, furniture, backgrounds, doll modeling item for auction unless specified as part of the auction/or the auction item, mannequins, doll stands, etc are NOT for sale. SHIPPING Q & A We ship calculated USPS shipping. USPS rules state if the mailer is over 1/4 of an inch thick it is considered a package. Package dimensions, package weight, and the zone of the shipping destination are all figured into the postage pricing system and is automatically figured by the USPS/Ebay system. The USPS base package price starts at $5.00 (1-4 oz). We have a $2 handling fee per lot. We combine shipping on orders. Combined shipping involves repacking your items into a single mailer, weighing and measuring the package, entering the shipping info into the Ebay calculated shipping system (integrated with the USPS system), and then adding our $2 handling fee per lot onto the shipping total (So, if you order 2 lots, handling is $4, etc). Your savings comes from the reduction in the weight of the package due to shipping 1 mailer opposed to X mailers. The easiest way to combine shipping is to put everything in the cart, buy it now, and we will refund the overage in shipping once we pack/calculate your purchases. This package weighs 3 oz.
