VINTAGE LACE EVENING GOWN WITH BUSTLE WITH 3 HUGE SATIN BOW AND A METAL ZIPPER GORGEOUS SCALLOPED LACE HEM IN ENGLISH TOFFEE

An absolutely gorgeous vintage floral lace dress with an exquisite bustle with 3 satin bows and a metal zipper in English Toffee.

This is one of the most unique and beautiful vintage dresses that I have seen. Very elegant and expensive looking and I am sure it was. Perfect for a garden party, a guest at a wedding, an informal wedding, an important formal affair, a special dance, prom, a cruise and many other occasions.

Sweetheart neckline on the bodice which has floral lace over a layer of light netting and then a taffeta lining under that - 9 rows of boning to keep the bodice in place adn keep the top from wrinkling - cap sleeves with a bit of elastic so it can be worn slightly off the shoulders - full skirt with a scalloped lace hem - long metal zipper in back with hook & eye, vintage light cardboard tag inside which states "Order number, Style, Size, Remarks" There is also the vintage tag which says "International Ladies Garment Workers Union."

There are 6 layers of fabric in the skirt - top layer is lace, then under that a light netting under the lace, then more netting over the taffeta lining, then the taffeta lining and then 2 attached crinolines! - vintage pinked seams around the waist under the fabric and on the bodice

But the most beautiful part of the dress is the bustle in back with with very large champagne colored satin bows and underneath the netting, lace and satin bows is a wide strip of satin so when the sheer lace is over it , it accentuates the champagne bows place on top of it!

Care Instructions

We examine each item carefully and note any imperfections, but unless an item is said to be new, please don't expect it to be perfect & even some new items have small imperfections. I will always state in the description if there are any imperfections & I never do repairs but leave them to others who are better able to do them than me as that is not my expertise.

Please remember that unless specified all items have been used and will show varying signs of use or wear. We always list the obvious imperfections to the best of our abilities. However, some slight imperfections that will not show or affect wearing or using the item may slip by or not be considered worth mentioning.

Vintage nightgowns & peignoirs may be delicate so I do not wash them in the machine. I wash them in lukewarm water with Woolite or some other mild soap, then rinse & hang dripping wet in the shower.

Since these are vintage items, a bit of extra care needs to be taken with them so they remain beautiful & I definitely would never put a vintage nightgown or a peignoir in the dryer as it would ruin it.

The items are sold as we find them. We do not dry clean, launder, alter or repair vintage clothing and they should be cleaned or washed upon arrival. Please make your selection carefully & check the measurements as there is no return on clothing or other items.
