A unique example of the exquisite craftsmanship and fashionable flair of the Titanic era, this wedding dress, circa 1912, is more than just a garment - it's a piece of history. The dress captures the elegance and luxury of a bygone era and offers a fascinating insight into the fashion preferences and artistic influences prevalent in America at the beginning of the 20th century.
Despite the slight discoloration and minor damage (especially to the lining, which is splintering) left by the ravages of time, the dress remains an impressive testament to an era in which fashion and style played a central role in social life. It is still in a very good state of preservation.
The dress tells stories of love, hope and the dreams of the bride who once wore it. Every detail, from the lace to the pearls and hanging tassels, from the seams to the tapered train, testifies to the dedication and skill of those who created the dress. It is a symbol of the care and pride that was invested in the production of clothing at the time.
A wax headdress is included. Minor cracks in the wax, subtle discoloration, minor losses to the buds.
