Separate Long Cathedral Cape slips over the shoulders, fitted with large satin bows.  Fully lined with stiff non woven material, which is torn in several places.  This does not in any way show when worn.  The cape measures 108" long at the back.  Ideal for current Bride, Costume, Theater, or display.

The dress and cape train remain pure white, at 54 years of age.  The dress is in very nice condition, with only very minor soiling along the hem.  There is an area on the lower front which appears to have been slightly discolored by ironing or old moisture.  The cape has soiling along the lower portion, and the bow tips have small spots.  See photos for detail.  Priced accordingly.  (Original 1966 price over 4000.00.)
