This 1960s vintage wedding gown is made of duboni silk and linen blend fabric trimmed with French Alençon lace [often referred to as the "Queen of Lace"].

The fiber of the gown is all silk and wool, 100% natural

The color is a light ivory, the lace a shade darker.

The Alencon lace is cotton and came from France (this dress was made in 1967).  Modern  Alencon lace is made with cotton and polyester fiber unless it comes from France.

I will send a picture of the veil head piece, which I will include.  You would need new veiling.

Shoulder measurement (tip of shoulder bone to other side tip ) is 16 1/2”

The bust measurement in front, side to side is 20 1/2”

You will see from the drawing how the dress falls from front to back, it has a very slimming profile.  The train falls from the back of the shoulder to the floor.  Though there is a seam on the side of the dress it is just to attach the train.  If you were to lift up the side of the train you would see that the train is the back of the dress.  I hope this clarifies.

Train length is 8 1/2 feet from shoulder to end.

When we took the dress out of the box (it had been professionally dry-cleaned and packaged as you will see from the cleaner’s note inside the box), we discovered there were three light stains near the end of the train that must have happened at the reception.  We will send pictures.  

If this is the dress that you want AND you want the stains gone, I am happy to trim the train and move the lace edging to accommodate a shorter train.  I would need to shorten the train by 19” which means the total length of the train from the shoulder to end would be 7 feet.   

I am an accomplished seamstress so you needn’t be concerned about my ability to take care of this.  I had a costume design business for 25 years and have made costumes for the ballet, opera, modern dance and living history clothing for the National Park Service.  However, this wedding gown was a purchased item.
