Belt
The dress to which this belt belongs was bought at the department store John Lewis in April 1944 for £6 19s 6d. It was shortened and the waist taken in. The pleats of the skirt should hang free, they had been wrongly pressed by the dry cleaner.
The dress was worn by Mrs S.G. Edmonds at her wedding on 8 November 1944 at Tottenham Registry Office.
