Pre-WWII Dresses

1960's Reproduction Flapper

Kick up your heels and celebrate in this off-white satin number with cream fringe. In the back there are two satin bows and a kick pleat. 1960's custom made reproduciton from New York.

Beauty Marks: This dress has been cleaned but there are a couple very tiny rust spots about the size of a pin point on the band around the hips.

Edwardian Wedding Dress

Breath-taking is the only way to describe this beauty.  The embroidered dots and fine lace are just part of the exquisite detail that make this dress perfect. This dress just feels special.  The age, the craftsmanship, the tea-stained color.  It looks rich and lovely.

Vintage Monique Lhuillier

Modern designer dress by Monique Lhuillier with 1930's appeal.  This seductive bias cut silk will keep all eyes on you.  "Iman" style, size 10.

Beauty Marks:  This dress came to us with the designer label and original price tag detached.  This slinky siren could use a dry-cleaning to brighten up the fabric (it was most likely a sample dress).

1930's Vintage Dress

An elegant lady indeed.  This dress comes with a peach colored chemise which shows through the detailed lace of the dress.  The sleeves have a thin strip of peach satin piping down the front and back.  The front fastens with tiny fabic covered buttons that nip in the waist.

Beauty Marks: Needs front center button re-fastened

1930's Bias-cut Wedding Gown

A figure flattering dress to be sure. There is no zipper or buttons, so check your measurements carefully. Once you are in, you will be transformed. The silk drapes across every curve. Pointed sleeves and a slightly squared neckline. This dress has been cleaned.

Beauty Marks:  This dress had a wired lace collar which was removed.  The neckline needs some finishing, or a new collar could be added.  In certain lighting there is a very slight thumb size smudge on the lower left hip area.

1930's Lace Wedding Gown

The details are what make this spectacular dress.  All white lace in a form fitting cut, the back is fastened with a beautiful glass button from which drapes a lace capelet.  Attached at the back waist is a narrow train that follows your every move. Sleeves are finished with a row of glass buttons at each wrist.

1930's Chiffon Wedding Gown

Delicate cream silk chiffon seems to whisper words of love. A ruffle of chiffon borders the neckline yoke and the hem and delicate stitching forms floral patterns.  You will feel light as air in this graceful gown.

1930's Satin Gown

Tiny, tiny, tiny, but as we all know...good things come in small packages.  This one is wrapped up with a glorious, luscious bow across the back.  Putting this dress on is like stepping into a pool of, well, satin.  The inside is lined with a pretty light blue and the outer satin is more of a putty color.  Fit into this darling and he will surely be putty in your hands...

Flapper Fabulous

New, reproduction beaded flapper.  We love authentic vintage, but sometimes, just sometimes, a sparkly new dress can be just as attractive.  You won't have to worry about the fabric tearing or beads falling off with this stunner.  Iridescent sequins and tiny beads in an art deco design capture the light at every angle.  Pictured over a silk slip, not included.

Titanic Era Gown

Pure white cotton lace. Perhaps a satin ribbon about the waist? Envision yourself playing croquet or badmitten under the branches of a blossoming cherry tree. Tea anyone? Oh the romantic daydreams never end...(pictured with a silk slip, not included)

Beauty Marks:  Exceptional condition, but I must mention one thing...underarm stains are a pet peeve of mine and they have no business showing up on wedding gowns!  This dress has the faintest tinge on both arms, but fortunately it is not visible unless the fabric is bunched up into a ball--the netted nature of the fabric allows the coloring to appear pure white, throughout the dress.  If worn with a slip which has white sleeves, then the spots may be noticeable.  That said, I would not hesitate, myself, to wear this gown on my special day.

1930's White Lace Bias-Cut Gown

Visions of foreign film wedding feasts, romance, dancing, and smiles flood my head when I see this gown. The bias-cut flatters every curve, the understated elegance highlights the beauty of the bride, and the lace says, "wedding." This is the perfect dress. Shown over a slip, not included. Zipper in back and on side.

1930's Beaded Silk Bias-Cut Dress

Once in a lifetime you will find that special one--that dress like no other.  This is it.  The design is incredible.  Bias-cut beige silk that hugs the body, intricate beading on a netted bodice, and the sleeves!--Look at those sleeves!  Simply stunning and unique.

Beauty Marks:  Unfortunately this dress has a couple flaws to point out.  I wouldn't offer it if I didn't feel it was wearable--but I want everyone to know what to expect.  There a couple of the lower buttons that appear to be crushed (see photo). The sleeves are tight in the forearm--you may want to remove them and just have the puffed short sleeves. There is a faint mark on the left front thigh area (see photos).  Just right of the neckline center, the beaded netting has a tear (see photo).  I find that this turn under quite easily, so as not to be noticed. Lastly the train, which is long and luscious, has some traffic marks--nothing that doesn't get enveloped by the rest of the fabric...and in case you've never encountered it before, the inside bottom hem is covered in a masking tape sort of material.  It doesn't show on the outside, but seems a little strange when you first notice it.
