Doesn’t your vintage CISSY doll deserve a gorgeous ROSE PINK TAFFETA FORMAL GOWN for her special holiday GIFT… She will love it! NOTE: Doll and jewelry not included… Gown is NOT mint nor perfect but in very nice vintage condition. This Cissy gown is #2036 from 1956 and it may be the RARE long torso gown of ROSE taffeta. The lighting may show different color tones in the iridescent taffeta but gown is not faded or dusty. A cummerbund waist cascades down to form a side drapery caught up by a rhinestone jeweled pin. The puffed taffeta shoulder straps are also adorned with rhinestone pins. Her gown is in very good vintage condition but the back bodice does not appear to be perfect. The fourth snap that is attached to the thick drape material at back waist appears to be reinforced with additional pink thread. I looked at a couple of similar gowns in different colors and the shoulder straps were attached differently. I checked with a well-known Cissy collector who has this particular Rose Taffeta Cissy Gown and she sent me pictures of the back shoulder straps and lining. Her gown and my gown both have finished bodice with tag sewn in between the taffeta and organdy. Her shoulder straps were stitched on the inside finished bodice and not on the outside taffeta like mine. However, it would be an easy fix to remove stitching and stitch straps back on the inside of the finished back bodice. If we find out anything different, I will post it. I don’t notice any particular tears, pulls or stains in the gown and it is tagged “CISSY” and has not been laundered and is also lined with organdy which looks aged in color. Organdy slip with under slip in picture is also included with this rose gown. NOTE: I do not see any noticeable tears, pulls, or rips in the fabric at the back where the snaps are located. P lease zoom up pic s of the back bodice and snap areas for condition details. Doll clothing is in very nice vintage condition except for noted flaws above and has no offensive odors and my home is non-smoking with no inside pets. I have tried to mention everything but please zoom pictures for more details as they are part of the description or ask questions.
