Made of ivory silk, lace, embroidery, andheavy lace applique, it makes a stunning display piece. It is a largersize. The bust is 45, the waist is 34 and the skirt length is 38. Thedress does need conservation but is well worth the effort. It has the oldtrunk smell. There is no label in the petersham. I imagine it is Americanmade. The skirt is missing itswaist band and the inner silk underskirt. There are some spots (see photos) anda few tiny holes. The silk still presents very well. The bodice innerstructure is totally shattered. See photos. There is a stain on thecenter lace on the bodice. The silk lining of the lace on the bodice hasstarted to dissolve and you can see from the close up photos of the lace on thebodice that there are holes in this silk. This will need to be stabilizedor replaced. The silk chiffon on the sleeves and lace is still in goodcondition. The celery green silk is still sumptuous and there are no underarm stains. The lace appliques are fabulous. There are some light stainson the silk. This dress is well worth conserving and it is a project fora competent specialist.
