1940s chocolate brown rayon crepe dress with salmon velvet details.  Bodice has padded shoulders (pinned in, not sewn) and 3/4 sleeves.  Covered buttons run down the back and there is a side metal zipper.  Skirt is a-line with slanted hip pockets and attached belt with rear slide buckle.  There is velvet piping at neckline, sleeve hems and a large trapunto stitched flower over one shoulder.  Excellent vintage condition overall.  There is a green area of discoloration on the piping of one sleeve and very faint transfer to the hip just opposite that.  It is located on the inside/side facing the body so it's not really visible.  There is a faint mark just above that, see photo.  Otherwise just minor wear commensurate with age.  Fits like a small/medium.
