Antique-Gown

Evening dress from Vienna, ca. 1910

Elegant, three-piece evening dress of green silk, composed of skirt, bodice and collar blouse, made of the Viennese fashion house "Mandl Manó * Vienna". The owner could wear the dress décolleté-free without blouse as an evening dress, or with stand-up collar blouse as a tea or reception dress.
An ornate Art Nouveau belt buckle made of pearls and jet stones is sewn on the waist band. The collar of the blouse is rich and lavishly decorated. Very rare! The sleeves are made of tulle and pleated. The bodice has an elaborate sequined collar. The front of the skirt is draped typical for that time. The dress has a beautiful train. Plumb weights are inserted in the hem and train to get the silhouette of the dress elegantly. The condition is very good, only a few plumb weights are easily solved and the sequin collar has smallest, barely visible cracks. A dress in the typical Titanic-style, with label and in this condition is precious, rare and hard to find. This is also reflected in the price. Gloves and decoration are not included.
