Late 1910s Edwardian tea dress made from a semi-sheer white cotton lawn with a Swiss dot pattern. Absolutely gorgeous, with floral embroidery throughout. A blousy bodice beautifully adorned with a lace insert at the front and matching eye-hook placket at the upper back. Wide lace sleeves fall past the elbow, with a nipped waist and flowing skirt. Crocheted buttons close the dress all the way up the spine. A stunning piece of history, dripping with detail!
