1940s Navy Beaded Tea Dress

A vision of refined 1940s charm, this navy rayon crepe tea dress is delicately detailed with hand-sewn beading that adds just the right touch of sparkle. Perfect for afternoon socials or evening soirées, it strikes that signature wartime balance between elegance and practicality.

The bodice features subtle gathers and elegant beadwork along the neckline and shoulders, drawing the eye upward with a soft shimmer. The skirt falls in a graceful A-line from a cinched waist, flattering the figure without restricting movement. Short sleeves and a modest neckline keep the look demure, while the fluid drape of the crepe rayon fabric lends effortless sophistication.
