DATING TO THE EDWARDIAN ERA
FASHIONED OF A DOVE GREY NET THAT IS BEAUTIFULLY EMBROIDERED IN FRENCH KNOTS AND POLKA DOTS THROUGHOUT.
CUT IN PIGEON FRONT STYLE. SILK BRAID DETAIL ENCIRCLES THE FRONT TOP WHERE THE FLORAL LACE MEETS THE EMBRROIDERED NET WITH THREE LARGE EMBROIDERED WOOD CENTERED BUTTONS TRIMMING THE FRONT WITH AN ATTACHED LACE JABOT AT THE CENTER FRONT BUST.
HIGH COLLAR IS BONED, TRIMMED IN BRAIDING ON THE TOP WITH NOVELTY LACE FRILLS EDGING. ARM HOLES AND BOTTOM SLEEVE ARE TRIMMED IN THE SILK BRAID WITH AN INNER NET SLEEVE FINISHED IN LACE ON THE BOTTOM WITH TWO BANDS OF THE BRAIDING.
HOOK AND EYES CLOSE THE REAR WITH THE ENTIRE INTERIOR LINED IN NET WITH A NET RUFFLING AT THE BOTTOM MEANT TO BE TUCKED IN.
CONDITION: HOOKS AND BONING HAVE LEFT TRACE RUST STAINS AND I PERSONALLY WOULD REMOVE AND TREAT. I WOULD ALSO REMOVE THE FRONT BOB BUTTONS AS THE WOOD CENTERS HAVE LEFT SOME MILD STAINING AROUND THE BUTTONS. LOOSE BONING ON THE INNER COLLAR AND FOUR INCHES OF THE TOP LACE TRIM HAS COME FREE.
OTHERWISE STRONG AND WEARABLE AND EASILY RESTORED TO PERFECT CONDITION OR WEAR AS IS.

Vintage and antique items ARE NOT new items.
Vintage clothing is described to its best and sold as found…and described as accurately as possible. The items HAVE NOT been cleaned and should be cleaned prior to wearing at the discretion of the buyer. Often for proper fit, hang, and wear ability, pieces will need to be altered and/or adding a hook or snap here or there, with a seam closure or strengthening needed. Vintage clothing is most often worn previously, and if old stock, often has slight imperfections from storage, a hint of color or odor.

These are antique articles, having the age stated….all flaws if any are painstakingly outlined. The exact color and sizing of an item is the responsibility of the bidder, please read the measurements carefully and ask questions if uncertain
