1940's "Lillian" A-line Bridal Gown
A recommendation by GetGoRetro

First to recommend
“Lillian” is a stunning and accurate example of bridal wear from the early forties. This lovely dress is stitched in a buttery golden silk charmeuse with an overlay of caramel lace. The silk under-dress is princess-line, five-gore skirt fitted closely at the bodice and waist and is sleeveless with a sweetheart neckline. The overdress adds an air of modesty with a princess-line bodice, wrist-length leg-o-mutton sleeves that fasten with 4 loop and button closures, a high rounded neckline and fastens down the front of the dirndl skirt with 58 self-covered loop and button closures. The overdress made of carmel colored floral embroidered net adds a formal note appropriate for a church wedding.
The head piece is made of a heart shaped cap of butter colored lace. A veil of creme colored tulle is attached to entire length of the head piece and is three quarters the length of the gown. (via Cait)
