Vintage Edwardian Embroidered Cotton Gown or Wedding Dress
Price £325

Ref #753

One of the most beautiful dresses we've ever come across. A delicate Edwardian cotton lawn dress, probably originally a summer dress, would make a breathtaking vintage wedding dress. The cotton lawn is very fine and semi sheer, so would need to be worn with a slip. The front bodice opens with tiny hook and eyes, and is high necked with lace panels, white embroidery and pintucking to the shoulders and sleeves. The cuffs are trimmed with white lace. There is a narrow cream satin ribbon binding the waist, with tiny pintucks leading into the skirts. Stunning panel at the hem, made up of rows of white lace and embroidery, with a highlight of lilac floral embroidery. Simply stunning!

Excellent vintage condition, the slightest touch of grubbiness to the bottom hem edge, and the odd pinhead dot sized mark - incredible condition for a piece of this period.
