Strikingly beautiful! This early-mid 1950s wedding dress has a dramatic contrast of curved seams with a sheer lace panel inset to center front. It has a V-neck and sheer lace sleeves with V-point wrists. Nipped waist has an hourglass silhouette, with richly full pleats and gathers to the full skirt, lined in a full layer of tulle. The skirt extends into a formal train that trails about 2-3 feet behind the bride.

Condition Detail
Lovely condition overall, has a few minor gray scuffs along the hem, very mild and definitely not a detraction; three faint, thin blue lines low to left front, hard to perceive amidst the skirt's fullness and hardly noticeable; three rust penpoint dots on train, this is noticeable, could be shortened or embellished to cover
