Description :

Extraordinarily stunning I. Magnin & Company of San Francisco evening dress.  Label appears to be the same as typical for I. Magnin in the 1920's by founder Mary Magnin for clothing sold at her flagship San Francisco store.  The gown is heavily adorned with all black beads.  Shoulder straps are approximately 3/4" wide and have a beaded design that extends the length of the strap.  Opens in the back and is closed with hook & eyes.  Bolstered bodice under arms and fully lined.  Under dress is an antiqued bronze shade.  Beads have fallen from one thread on right side (see picture); however, owner preserved original beads to repair that strand.  It appears the remainder of the beads are intact with the exception of one strand in the back that may need to be tacked into a loop with the rest nearby.  There are many loops and strands that give this gown an amazing sense of design and creative workmanship.  The photos were taken with the gown laying flat rather than upright.

SIZE:  Bust 32", Waist 26", Length 46"  WEIGHT : 4.5 pounds.
