Antique Victorian 2 piece dress. This lovely gem features lots of net lace-very full ruffles. The lace is quite amazing! The rows of lace on the skirt are connected by satin ribbon (there are a few areas where the lace needs to be reconnected to the ribbon, there is satin ribbon stitched to the body of the blouse and top part of the skirt-some of this needs to be reattached. The sleeves are very full. This dress was once lined with black silk-the silk has shattered and most of it is no longer present-the sleeves still have their lining. This dress is being sold in AS FOUND condition for study or repair. There are several broken brides in the lace-majority of the repairs would require restitching the ribbon, attaching the ruffle to ribbon on the skirt and repairing a few open seams, redoing the lining.

Vintage clothing is worn/pre-loved and has sometimes been in storage for a number of years. I launder or dry clean some items, but ultimate laundering or dry cleaning, before wearing, is the buyer's responsibility. Items are sold "as is". I will describe any flaws that I notice. All vintage clothing is bound to have a trivial flaw here or there. Majority of pieces I list are between 30 and 80 years old and will have normal wear indicative of their age. If you have any questions, please ask before bidding. I may miss something super minor that does not effect the overall look of the piece in any way. I want YOU to enjoy the unique and lovely pieces that I offer to you. Our merchandise is collectible and is not new and has lived a long and eventful life. We do not launder or dry clean unless stated in listing, and most times have been in storage for many years picking up old age storage oxidation spots. We expect the winning bidder to be prepared to clean or launder items even if item has never been worn or used.Remember antique fabrics most always has some sort of flaw from being around so many years. Every effort has been made to describe our items as accurately as possible including flaws and imperfections to the best of our ability. We mention any marks or stains that are noticed, in the listing. We try to observe and report every defect that we are aware of to the best of our abilities, to give the buyer an accurate description but to mention every single minor blemish is laborious and unnecessary.
