I have purchased this truly amazing dress in London in 2001 in a special area boutique ’Susan’s’ something like that. The owner specialized in collecting and selling 18th, 19th and early 20th century women clothing. It was 2 storied boudoir filled with batiste, lace, silk , crochet. Never seen anything like that. Personal shopper from Quintessentially, a luxury personal concierge service, that was launched in London in December 2000, brought me there.
