Authentic Edwardian Cream Lace Lawn Dress with Pink Slip and Attached Cape
This rare Edwardian lace lawn dress is one of my most special pieces. I can just picture a woman wearing it through a walk in the park, to an evening dinner with friends, or at a special gala. Although it has its faults, its condition is rather impressive for being well over 100 years old. I have tried to capture these flaws in the pictures but will always be happy to give you more detail. I do believe a special person who loves to collect vintage and appreciates the art and history woven into every detail, will fall in love with her just as I have. Estimated to fit a size s-m.
Cream lace with baby pink underlay. Sleeves feature two purposeful slits for added detail (See photos). Small snap closure at wrists.
Cape-like feature in back of dress adds beautiful flow. Work greenish silk tie belt. A couple holes in back of dress (one about 16 from bottom and another at bottom of dress).
Some brownish staining at right shoulder. Several tears in pink slip. Slight discoloration still after wash.
Throughly soaked for 24 hours in gentle Orvus quilt soap. Not recommended for normal wear. I will be happy to cut out the pink lining upon buyers request (there are several tears as soon in the photos).
