 In the 30’ and earlier the designers used a lot of heavy lace fabric in their creations, as you see in this blue lace dress. The long dress has full sleeves with cuffs; skirt is cut on the bias with an opening in the front and the back being longer. This dress could be used for an earlier time period (1910) with a little adjustment and imagination. |

 The 30’s is known for garments are lovely on small bodies because they stretch and cling to the body. The fabric was cut on the crosswise or bias and thus it stretches and hangs attractively. This light yellow rayon crepe dress is such an example of a bias cut in its design techniques. |
