1930s Bishop Sleeve Candlelight Silk Gown [sm/med]
£1,304.00
The quintessential 1930s silk bridal gown. This is it, the one from the movies, the magazines, you name it. When you think Old Hollywood wedding, this is the gown that you see. Perfect draping bodice, massively voluminous bishop sleeve, miles of buttons down the back and an elegant but manageable length train. Supremely flattering and comfortable to wear with the softest, most sumptuous candlelight silk that reflects light like no other material. Art Deco perfection.
Excellent condition. There are some very subtle long scuff marks on the underside of the train that are entirely invisible on the exterior. Otherwise there are a few extremely subtle minor scuffs in the back skirt and two pinholes on the sleeve, all of which gets totally lost in the drape. Presents as mint.

Bust 34-38 in (lots of flexibility in the drape)
