<p data-mce-fragment="1">Museum quality and exceptionally rare 1920's silk velvet couture evening dress by legendary designer Sadie Nemser. Renowned for creating exclusive and painstakingly detailed couture dresses for a small clientele of wealthy socialites, celebrities and even a stylish First Lady. Grace Coolidge wore a Nemser Original crimson red silk velvet flapper dress for her husband’s inauguration in 1923. Her pieces rarely come to market and it is virtually unheard of to offer up a pair at the same time. This is a collector's dream opportunity to own a "holy grail" item. </p>
<p data-mce-fragment="1">What makes this particular Nemser so special is it's absolutely breathtaking ethereal beauty, hand beaded aquamarine silk velvet with metallic lace trimmed in glass bugle beads. The center of the dress features extraordinary ribbon flowers trimmed in pearls, carved mirrors that represent swallows and pronged rhinestones. There is even a neck piece with rosettes and lace that trails in the back. But what takes it to a whole other level is the erotic implications and suggestive nature of the design. The center skirt is slit open to reveal blue velvet panels that frame the silk chiffon and lace slip that is adorned with what no doubt represents a woman's vagina. Even the hidden flowers underneath the lace are strategically placed. This is a true piece of antique erotic fashion. Hence I have named it "The Secret Garden". </p>
<p data-mce-fragment="1">The dress has snaps up the side and slips on over the head. The under skirt is fitted while the outer layer is full. </p>
<p data-mce-fragment="1">This dress is in overall excellent condition for age. I have included detailed photographs that represent the condition report. There are small stains and areas of minor discoloration. She has yellowed a bit from age. The under skirt has very faint water stains and an area on the inside back of the slip of what appears to be marks from storage. They are not visible when worn. I have not had it professionally cleaned, but have treated some of the spots that look like spilled coffee. They have lightened considerably and are only noticed upon close inspection. Needless to say, she wears and presents beautifully. Very sturdy and wearable. No holes, rips, tears or odors. Remarkably well preserved for her age. </p>
