From the seller:
sorry to say this victorian womans suit is in bad shape - but it has wonderful beadwork and lace and good "bones" if you would want to save it or redo it wonderful it needs at least that
you can see the disintegration of the outer layer material
but look past that at the beadwork and lace
this is a case of what you see is what you get
From Me:
So very 1890's! Sleeves of doom!!!!
From the way it's shown on the dress form, either the bride was awfully short, or there was an underskirt.
ReplyDeleteEither way, those sleeves made her look like a munchkin! ;-)
I think it's just poorly displayed. ;-) Everyone needs to wear sleeves as big as their head at some point.
