1940s Lilac Bows Dress1940s lightweight rayon dress by Jennifer Junior. Tag has a date written on it, April 4, 1946, which indicates it was worn for a special occasion, possibly a wedding. Bodice has padded shoulders, snap closure at the neckline and lots of detailing over the front. Skirt is softly a line. There is a matching belt that snaps closed. It was near impossible to capture the true color of the fabric. It's not quite as vibrant a purple as most of the photos
