Incredibly special 1930s crinkle silk gown with hand beaded embellishments that has been painstakingly restored by Demetra. When found, marks, holes, stains and sloppy old repairs were visibly scattered throughout. After being carefully cleaned by hand, the gown was transformed in our studio with countless hand applied appliqués using authentic 1930s lingerie laces from our extensive materials library (the bow motif was a match made in heaven!). The result is an exquisite cascade of delicate lace florals trailing through the bodice and skirt with a trompe l'oeil central bow mirroring the beadwork, supremely feminine and light as air. Would make for an absolutely unforgettable bridal moment- a one of a kind custom treasure, destined to become an instant heirloom. 

This one of a kind garment is a Demetra Revival restoration: a rare but wounded treasure given new life in the Demetra studio using professional tailoring skills, heirloom techniques, and historically accurate materials. It bears a Demetra label, carefully sewn into the interior. This garment is now in excellent to pristine condition, with little to no evidence of wear.
