Description: Stunning antique 1890s Victorian black silk faille gown comprised of a bodice and skirt In amazing condition, the only issues I could find were a small popped seam (which I fixed) and loose stitching on the inner bodice waist tape. I love the yellow contrast stitching inside the bodice Features soutache braid appliqués at the cuffs and front panels of the bodice The skirt is full and heavily pleated at the back to achieve that quintessential late Victorian silhouette Closes via a complicated series of hook and eyes Really beautiful example of its time period. The sleeve treatment especially is delightful as it captures the period just after the 1880s and before they become the huge sleeves the mid-1890s are known for Best for display due to age and small size 33” bust 24” waist Open hips 40.5” skirt waist to front hem This is an antique item, and as with any antique item it has imperfections. I have attempted to list them all here, however, please treat this item with the care you would treat something 100+ years old. If you wish for an item that behaves like new, please go buy something new instead.
