Vintage 1910s Ivory Crème Embroidered Net-Lace & Silk Satin Trained Bridal Gown

About the Item

Ethereal bridal gowns from the early 20th century are perennial favorites and this one is a wedding show-stopper. The garment's effortless style is so modern; the intricate hand embroidery and fine fabrics are a treasure trove of couture needle art. This beauty, fashioned in a light-weight ivory crème silk satin, is also mixed with lavish net lace and sensational silk tulle. I love the way these antique textiles come together in such a magnificent way. The semi-sheer net lace goes down the front so you can either wear a slip, bodysuit or unique lingerie to create your own modern look. The ultra flattering slight empire bodice has elegant short sleeves. The exacting perfection of the fringed detail is beyond compare, while the dramatic back train has such magical allure. We needed to add many detail images so one can appreciate the masterful achievement. This museum quality gown resonates powerfully today, not only because of its intrinsic beauty, but also because it is an important aesthetic artifact from well over 100 years ago. The pictures say it all. Measurements Bust: 33-34 inches High Waist: 26-28 inches Hips: up to 40 inches Total Length: 59 inches Train Length: 37 inches This antique Edwardian couture bridal dress is in beautiful wearable condition with no serious damage. The garment slips over the head with numerous metal snaps and hook/eye closures down the backside. Only sign of wear are some darkening to the fabric from age and a few spots which do not at all detract from the gown's beauty. Please message for detailed pictures. A true work of art.

    A breathtaking Nolan Miller Couture unworn with tags embroidered silk organza sculpted bridal gown dating back to the early 1990's. Nolan Miller was an acclaimed costume designer best known for his work on the long-running series Dynasty. Miller was nominated six times for an Emmy Award, winning 'Outstanding Costumes' in 1984 for the Dynasty series, which also set a fashion trend for glamorous high society gowns.

    Located in Beverly Hills, CA
    A breathtaking museum quality bridal dance dress dating back to the mid-1920's. Two layers are cleverly designed to complement each other; a fine filet-lace outer layer with a foliate design over an ecru silk-crepe slip layer embroidered with pastel silk-ribbon rosettes. The rosettes are positioned under the filet-lace design so that they appear to be the blooms of the foliate in the lace! The overall effect is quite spectacular, and the dress has survived beautifully over the years. A small designer label in the interior reading "Weathered Misses Shop Chicago", which was the one shop in Chicago able to import French couture. The original owner of the garment said the shop was able to do this by selecting the couture designs overseas. After making their selections, the patterns and materials would be shipped over for fabrication in their own workrooms, allowed them to sidestep the hefty import tax on already completed couture models. The design and construction are identity to Callot Soeurs aesthetic who was known for working with wealth American clients. A rare piece of ethereal fashion history that will become a favorite in your collection.
