Heavenly Antique 1930’s Liquid Silk Charmeuse Wedding Gown with a Stunning Cathedral Train Alencon Lace Shoulder and Collar Detail
Couldn't load pickup availability
Breathtaking antique 1930’s liquid satin wedding gown made from 100% silk Charmeuse fabric with a bias cut hemline and a pooled cathedral train.
This stunner radiates glamour, elegance, and timeless sophistication. Pin tucked neckline in front with a structured collar uniquely placed in back, gathered fabric along the bust with an inverted U shaped waistline. I hand sourced vintage Parisian Alencon lace for the purpose of replacing the original weak, broken, stiff and lifeless lace found in various parts of the upper half of the gown. The replacement was constructed so masterfully that it appears as though it was always a part of the original design.
Crafted with a romantic puff shoulder, tapered sleeves towards the wrists, topped with pointed wrist cuffs. The skirt’s hip hugging bias cut silhouette drapes beautifully towards the ground, extending into a breathtaking 94” cathedral train, with a pooled sweep formed behind the wearer. The dress fastens down the backside with 15 fabric covered buttons and includes a side snap placket on the left side, which makes it easy to get in and out of.
The silk satin fabric is lustrous, easy to maneuver, highly breathable and has a lot of life left due to the fine preservation of this garment.
Suitable for sizes XS and S. Please refer to measurements to ensure proper fit.

Condition:
Great antique condition. Light wear consistent with age however there are no blatantly visible imperfections - you’d see them reflected in the photos if they were visible. Happy to send more images or videos upon request. The Alencon lace was newly installed by my tailor. Price reflects condition, rarity and re-design.
In person appointments are available, just contact the shop. Studio location is in Los Angeles, CA.
Detailed photos of the garment are taken for my records prior to shipping.

SHIPPING INFO:
All pieces are shipped out once a week on Thursday's. You will be provided with a photo of the tracking. Once it leaves my hands, the responsibility of the item arriving is on the shipping carrier. I am NOT responsible for any issues that may arise.
With that said, in the 6 years I've have been running this shop, there was only one piece that didn't arrive to the prospective owner. So I'd say the odds of your package arriving safe and sound - even internationally - are extremely reliable.
If you need a rushed delivery, or need me to ship your piece out before Thursday of that particular week, just contact me via the contact page found in the home page menu.
Or, feel free to email me sacredgardenvintage@gmail.com. OR, feel free to send me a direct message via the shop's instagram @sacredgardenvintage. I will be happy to mail it out the day you need it for, and I can expedite shipping (at the cost of the shipping carrier). I do not make any profits from shipping, as in, i'll never quote you a cost that is 5-10$ more than what I am quoted. I want you to be pleased with your purchase, and your shopping experience so I will do what I can in order for that to occur.
RETURNS AND REFUNDS:
ALL SALES FINAL.
All sales are final. Returns and refunds are not accepted unless an item has been materially or grossly misrepresented in its description or condition.
One other option that is available to clients: if you are willing to send the piece back to me, pay for shipping, I can list it again and split profits 40/60 (client gets 40%/seller gets 60%). I had one amazing client propose this, and thought it was a genius way to go about something like this.
IMPORTANT*** It is up to my discretion regarding which clients I will make this exception for. A lot of my choice to say yes to this stems from the way the client approaches me, and whether I am treated with respect. If I have demands hurled at me (from the opening message, or any message thereafter), if I am insulted in anyway, or if you threaten to ruin the reputation of my business because I said no to a refund (yes...this did actually occur recently) - I will not be extending this exception to you.
When you purchase a piece from my shop, you are signing a contract that states you have read all of the fine print and understand what is available to you.
Please keep in mind that our collection consists primarily of vintage and antique garments, many of which are decades or even over a century old. Each piece is carefully inspected and, whenever possible, restored to the best condition its age and materials allow. Any notable or visible imperfections are disclosed in the item description.
Right now, I am offering solutions which show I am willing to work with you if you are not happy with your purchase. And generally, if someone reaches out, I give them multiple options regarding how to solve this, including partial refunds, taking the item to my tailor, store credit, etc. If I see that this is taken advantage of, I will move back to the business model of no refunds or returns PERIOD.
If you have any concerns about the condition of an item before you purchase it, please reach out to me at sacredgardenvintage@gmail.com. You can also send me a direct message via the shop's instagram, username: sacredgardenvintage. You can find a direct link to my instagram at the bottom of my store's page.
Lastly, there is the option to contact me via the shop’s contact form. I am very responsive - it wont take more than 24 hours for me to get back to you - if that.
I want my clients to love their purchases, I want my clients to love their experience when shopping with me, and I don’t want any surprises upon opening up a package - unless it’s a good one :)
