Description: This exquisite antique original Edwardian evening dress, dating back to 1912, features a captivating blue satin fabric that embodies the elegance of its era. The bodice and sleeves are adorned with intricate blue floral patterns complemented by delicate black lace trim, enhancing its visual appeal. Both the front and back necklines showcase an insert of blue chiffon, elegantly finished with a beaded edge, while the neckline and the lower sections of the sleeves are crafted from fine white lace. The bodice is further embellished with soft blue velvet accents and a prominent blue velvet rosette positioned at the waist, adding a touch of sophistication. The skirt is adorned with decorative embroidery and silk fringe, contributing to the overall opulence of the garment. It is secured at the back with a hook and eye closure. Although originally lined with blue silk, only remnants of the lining remain within the bodice. The dress exhibits some signs of wear, including light underarm discolouration, minor repairs beneath each arm, a few tiny holes, and a missing decorative button on one sleeve, along with loose stitching on that same sleeve. It is important to note that the dress is intended for display purposes only, as there is no discolouration present aside from the camera flash. The measurements are as follows: Bust 34 inches, Waist 28 inches, Hips 32 inches, with a front skirt length of 40 inches and a back length of 48 inches. The buyer is responsible for shipping costs.
