Size 10 Wedding Dress - Gibson Girl Inspired Antique Style 60s Bridal Gown with

Description

With its antique look, this vintage wedding gown has extraordinarily pretty details with Gibson Girl appeal! The short-sleeve Edwardian style bodice has pearl curliques and a cameo to the sheer net yoke. It has briefly belled net sleeves, a gorgeous curve to the high V-neck and a slightly raised waist. The skirt is adorned only in deeply scalloped lace, flared in a wide A-line with a trailing hem that extends about three feet behind the bride. This gown was made in the late 1960s with an Edwardian appeal, and its original 0 price tag is still attached from over forty years ago... this would be over ,000 in today's dollars.
