1900 Handmade Victorian Silk Ivory White Gown with Lace
Each square inch of this exception Victorian silk gown stands out with great loveliness & exceptional quality. Perfectly round rhinestones nestle in embroidered-edged fine gauze & lace gathered at the neckline. Perfectly puffed sleeves end in gorgeous lace, after three rows of little gathered cording. This echoes the nine rows of gathered cording which run around the bodice to create an incredibly flattering shape. Likewise, seven lines of gathered cording near the hem, to create an excellent light ruffle at the bottom.
The gown fastens up the back with hooks-and-eyes.
