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.
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!

looks very much like the 1980′s styles
Yeah, my 1980s wedding dress had big sleeves. But, it also had a bustle.
That must have cost a fortune back in the day, with all that intricate work.
I bet! I didn’t look closely at this one as I was working with the older dresses, but I’m willing to bet the beading was all hand done.
