Marjorie and her ball gown!

Marjorie seems like quite a character.  She has left us some interesting clothes.  Remember, she is 20 in 1935, so she has a lot to experience!

The next dress we pulled out of the box:
The Ballgown!

The back

The tag

The Front
We have no date for this dress, so if you have an idea, let me know.

The dress is in very stable condition, but also very stained, mostly mildew, I think.  But it has no smell.  The fabric is like a satin taffeta, but I am not sure.  It is full length and has a metal side zipper. The colors are light lavender and black.  I'm thinking, about 1935? But it would really fit in one of those WWII movies.
