Great dress with wonderful embroidery. Assume it is at Kulchi.
I have been asked by a customer to sell it!!
It is stunning embroidery on black cotton, looks unworn. There is some synthetic fabric in one place in the lining which I think may mean it is post 1950 s
The panels are machine stitched together.
It is in immaculate condition.
It was purchased on the Egypt / Palestine borders over 25 years ago.
I shall post some more pics now!
