Vintage 1930s 1940s Candlelight Satin + Lace Beaded Wedding Dress Gown with train


I am clearing out part of my vintage wedding dress collection.


Please see video so you can see how the dress moves. 

This dress was soaked / hand laundered, but will absolutely need to be pressed / steamed. This will either be shipped in a large polymailer or folded and shipped in a box. Again, it will absolutely need to be pressed / steamed.


FEATURES:

Button back closure. Lace front panel of skirt. Basque waistline. Pointed sleeve ends with button closures. Lace around neckline. Beaded detailing along neck. There is a finger loop for the train.


COLOR: a champagne with a slight peachy pink undertone, again slight. Warm candlelight vibes. This will obviously change depending on the lighting situation. Notice how the video is different than the NON EDITED still photographs due to different lightings.


WOUNDS FROM TIME:

Buttons will likely need to be replaced due to discoloration

Some of the buttons have some rust and that has created a few small rust spots on nearby satin - to the side of the button back

The lace near the chest and shoulders has a few tears

There are some marks and small spots near the hem mainly. See photos. Imo, most of the marks and spots sort of get lost in both the sheen of the satin fabric and in the sheer amount of fabric. Make your own best judgment call, however.


I am 5’2” and at the time of the video, I weighed 110 pounds.
