1950s wedding dress is a beautiful find in pure white lace & tulle, grandly full to the skirt in tulle and taffeta layers. This 50s bridal gown has a puffed sleeve and sheer tulle yoke, with a Peter Pan collar in scalloped lace. Has a fitted lace bodice and piped seam at the V-point basque waist. Sheer tulle gauntlets for the forearms are included, as well as the original wearer's stockings worn the original wedding day. Truly a classic wedding gown for a femme 50s beauty!

Worn for one wedding in the 1950s and then carefully packed away, the top of right shoulder's sheer yoke has a single penpoint hole (see sixth photo) that would be subtle when worn, the hem has a single cluster of 8-10 gray dots that are hard to find until sought out, overall the skirt's hem is very clean
