Incredibly beautiful, antique, Edwardian silk tulle and lace bridal gown with Schiffili embroidery, c. 1914. The exceptional craftsmanship, the level of meticulous detailing via the embroidery, coupled with the fact that there isn’t a single flaw to note, shows that this 100+ year old gown is a museum quality piece. Keep it for long enough, and you’ll have museum curators trying to buy this piece from you.
The bodice is crafted from two layers silk net fabric, topped with intricate Schiffili embroidered roses and small scattered dot work in front and back. Contains two dagger shaped floral lace filets down the center. Cute bib, lace lined detail placed along the neckline on backside. 3/4 quarter length sleeves with triple tiered frills at each arm opening. The skirt is double layered with net fabric, which gives the dress more of semi-sheer appearance. The first layer acts as a liner and is topped with double tiered frilly bottom skirt hemline.
The top layer mesh layer of the skirt is adorned with more Schiffili embroidered roses cascading down and around front to back. Below the embroidery is an attached piece of incredibly intricate filet of lace spanning 7 inches, with a unique and eye catching shark tooth hemline detail. 10 fully functional metal hook eye closures along the upper left hip and along the waistline, with a few metal snap in’s placed at the waistline. I re-designed this piece by having my seamstress expertly attach with a baby pink satin bow at the waistline to cover up where the seams meet. The bow is sewn in a way that still allows you to fully open and close the garment without any issues.
This beauty is suitable for a spectacular engagement shoot, a bridal shower, wedding rehearsal, or wedding ceremony. This dress can also be re-worn after the wedding to a variety of events and occasions.

Shipping & Returns
All sales are final. No returns or refunds.
Each treasure is hand selected, thoughtfully curated, a rare and beautiful unique piece of the past. I offer detailed descriptions, measurements, materials, and photographs that accurately display the condition of every offering. My team and I work hard to restore and sometimes re-make garments back to a condition of excellence and longevity. I do my best to disclose any and all clear or visible blemishes. However, due to the true nature of vintage and antique listings, there might be subtle signs of wear, consistent with age. Here at Sacred Garden Vintage, we believe imperfect characteristics carry an inherent charm, and display a non replicable historical imprint.
