Stunning and extremely rare antique Edwardian day dress Featherweight cotton lawn with embroidery and lace details Intricate pin tucking at bodice and skirt Fits estimated modern XS/S, I wear a 24/XS and this dress is not tight on me at all- great for a modern build, not extremely tiny Rare find from a remote part of the Rocky Mountains Very good to excellent antique condition considering it’s age. There are a couple tiny holes and the small spot on front that I noted (guessing it could be treated if it bothers you??), a couple breakages in lace and the normal issues that you would expect from something well over 100 years old. It appears very solid and in great wearable condition if worn with care. Please note there are no closures on the back so hook/eyes or sew on snaps will need to be added- this is a simple sewing task any tailor or alterations shops can do. Which leads me to believe it was maybe never worn but has been stored all this time !!?? Clean with no odor noted. Please be mindful that all delicate antique pieces such as this are FINAL SALE without exception, no returns or exchanges are offered since it is rare and potentially fragile. Thank you!

This, as do many of my patterns comes with fully illustrated instructions for construction and finishing. The white model and detail in the photo shows a sleeveless version I made from this pattern into a ‘ribbon’ dress (not for sale)! Other images show customer creations. This pattern has 3/8\
