is this 1882 Worth evening dress. Like all Worth dresses, it is of incredible construction and tailoring, with light, luxurious materials and gorgeous decorations. I adore the asymmetrical silk flowers!

is this 1890-5 ivory silk satin wedding dress with blonde lace trimmings and rosettes. The dress is what the object description called "overcolored," suggesting that the color got darker with age. Still stunning!

is this 1860-65 morning dress. I can only imagine that the dress used to be a lighter cream color. It would have been gorgeous to see this dress walking through a garden on a morning day.
