1960s White Chantilly Style Lace Tiered Wedding Dress

About the Item

This pretty early 1960s or late 1950s white Chantilly style lace bridal gown has a fairy tale charm. The man-made, Chantilly style lace overlay covers the dress in its entirety and features a delicate floral design. The lace on the skirt is interspersed with a tier of plain tulle which adds depth and interest to the fabric. The mid calf-length skirt has a soft layer of under tulle netting in addition to a sateen lining and is gathered at the waistline to create volume. The bodice nips in at the waist and the sateen underlay is cut into a sweetheart shape at the bust that is visible beneath the lace, which continues further up the chest in a gently sweeping round neckline. The sleeves remain sheer and taper to a point at the wrists with a concealed popper fastening on each cuff. A central zip fastening on the reverse runs to just below the waist. In lovely vintage condition and very white and fresh looking with no makers label present. Whilst the top presentation layer is in excellent vintage condition with no issues, on close inspection there are a few areas of small scattered holes to the netting underlay and the sateen underlay - these are not at all visible when worn. A further net petticoat could be added underneath if greater fullness is desired. This piece would best suit US size 4 - 6, UK size 8 - 10. MEASUREMENTS: BUST - 34 in. (87 cm) WAIST - 29 in. (74 cm) HIP - 46 in. (117 cm) LENGTH - 46 in. (117 cm)
