Filmy, weightless, barely there gown from the early 1920s–very sheer ivory silk chiffon, pieced with large panels of delicate cotton lace on the bodice, cuffs, and the entirety of the skirt. A marvel, worn once in a century.
Will fit many sizes, small to large
(model is 5'4", size 2)
Condition Very good. Flaws to note:
The original bridal ensemble included a large sash, sewn around the hips, which left tiny pinholes where it was removed. As found.
There are perspiration stains on the silk, which lifted quite a bit with careful laundering, and are discreet when the gown is worn.
Price reflects rarity & imperfections.
