Description
Amazing doesn't begin to describe this jaw-dropping handmade wedding gown from the 1930s (my estimate).Best for a petite XS
Crafted in a simple chiffon or organza type of fabric that drapes beautifully to this day.
Approximate flat measurements in inches:
Shoulder width: 11.75
Armpit to armpit: 15
Waist: 13
Front length: 47
Bicep: 4.5!! (too tight on my buff arms)
Perfectly cut for a petite person. I'm wearing it in the last few photos and I'm 5'1" for reference.
DRESS DOES NOT COME WITH A SLIP!!!
This dress looks INCREDIBLE for its age. My personal notes:
1. The button front does not go down all the way.
2. I couldn't do up the hook at the very top, but it is functional. You'll likely need someone else to do it up for you.
3. This dress was actually easy for me to put on, it's the arms that give me a hard time mainly because biceps are almost 10 inches around and the sleeves as they are will not fit anyone comfortably whose biceps are bigger than 9 inches. If you want this dress to fit you might ask a tailor to basically add a slit to the sleeves to give you room.
4. I have to apologize for all the wrinkles. You'll definitely need to have this steamed. I don't have the space to properly store it so it's been sitting in one of those packing cubes. :X
Please do note that there are quite a few imperfections to be noted:
1. The dress has rust stains, there are several on the train and some on the chest of the dress. I honestly don't feel like they take away from the dress whatsoever, but keep them in mind.
2. There are tiny pinpricks in the fabric throughout the dress and I noted two larger holes that are not any bigger than roughly my pinky nail. I would leave the pinpricks alone, but talk to a tailor who works on wedding gowns and these types of materials to patch the two larger holes.
3. One of the button straps has come undone.
