1898 wedding dress from the Canadian Costume Museum

And now I present the 1890s wedding dress we put on display last May.  It is dated 1898.The collar was a separate piece and seemed quite stiff.

Nice bead work on it, though.

I like the “shawl” effect of the lace.Pretty train too.

I’m done for today’s posting.  I’m not feeling to chatty today.  I have a project for work I want to work on and it is draining all my creative brain cells at the moment!  See ya tomorrow!

  1. Shirley A Victorian says:

    looks very much like the 1980′s styles

  2. That must have cost a fortune back in the day, with all that intricate work.
