c. 1930s Satin Floral Appliqué Wedding Gown
Beautiful 1930s ivory satin wedding gown with the most incredible silhouette. The bodice wraps softly across the front into a deep V neckline, with gentle gathering at the shoulders forming sculpted mutton sleeves, full through the upper arm before tapering into long fitted cuffs that come to a delicate point over the hand.
An asymmetric panel of satin sweeps across the bodice and gathers at the waist beneath a delicate spray of lily-of-the-valley flowers. The bias-cut skirt skims softly over the body, falling long and fluid with a gentle fullness towards the hem.
There is something so romantic about the soft sheen of the satin, the tiny flowers at the waist and those beautifully shaped sleeves feel almost storybook.

CONDITION
We take a lot of care with the condition of our vintage pieces. Each garment is cleaned, revived and carefully inspected, but vintage will naturally show signs of age and previous wear. With that in mind, please review the condition notes below:
Beautifully preserved. Some gentle age-related wear visible on close inspection. The fine lace lining inside the mutton sleeves is delicate with age and should be handled gently.
CARE
Your piece has been carefully cleaned and will arrive ready to wear. After shipping, it may just need a light steam to release any wrinkles. Use only distilled water on the lowest setting and from a distance, placing a clean white cloth between the steamer and the garment to help protect delicate fabrics from water marks.
For storage, keep your piece somewhere cool, dry and away from direct sunlight, ideally in a breathable garment bag where appropriate.
For any future cleaning or restoration, we recommend taking it to a professional who is experienced with vintage and delicate fabrics. A little care goes a long way in keeping your piece beautiful for years to come.
