Vintage Priscilla of Boston Wedding Dress Lace + Sydney Bush Petticoat Slip XS. Priscilla of Boston was the high end boutique on Newbury Street in Boston.
It opened in 1945 and closed in 2011. They were known to make the dress of the rich and famous. Princess Grace Kelly had her wedding gown made at Priscilla of Boston.
This wedding dress has a Priscilla of Boston tag. There is no size tag on the label. The dress looks like it fits an extra small. It is made of the most beautiful lace, appliques and satin.
The dress hem has a beautiful train. The dress still looks good, but it is yellowing with age in some parts (see pictures). There are some stains, like on the left and right sleeve to cuff area; on the back skirt (see pictures).
This is an older dress so there maybe some stains or marks that I did not see. The Sydney Bush slip is marked "Size 8", but this is vintage sizing where clothing was much smaller. In today standards this would fit an extra small. The top part is for a tiny waist and it is stretchable.
The slip is in good condition with some light spots which you may not see at first. It is hard to tell the exact age of the dress because it is a classic style. It could be from the 1960s to even the 1980s. It has a light dusty smell as the box was stored for many years in a dry environment where air did not move much. It is in overall good condition with some wear.
This comes from a pet and smoke free environment. This is the perfect dress to wear, or some may to take parts of the dress and create a new dress. Slip - Approximate measurements in inches. (Garment laid flat and measured). Across waist: 12 (Fits waist around 24).
