Original vintage 1940s cream hand made lace wedding dress and slip.

This exquisite gown is hand crafted from a beautiful floral lace that starts with a delicate collar, fits tightly over the bodice and down the slender sleeves to a pointed cuff. From the fitted waist the lace design falls in a cascade from the centre with detailed borders and a panel at the back to a graduated hem, gently overlapping a floor length tulle ballgown skirt.
Underneath, a peach taffeta slip delicately creates a blush to the whole gown.
