Above: On the
Sweep Train
A large center arrangement of embroidered organza measures 16
inches by 27 inches in height. It consists of Victorian fans and
flowers. The entire front skirt and train is edged with a
beautiful black cherry embroidered fan motif.

Above:
A lovely sweep train falls out
55 inches or four feet 7 inches from the bottom sloping dust
ruffle seam. Being that the back of the neck to the dust
ruffle measures 42 inches, the shoulder to end hem on the train
is 97 inches or eight feet one inch!

Above: Shown
bustled, the four and a half foot train neatly pulls up and attaches at
the dropped Basque back with the help of three buttons on the dress and
three thread loops on the train and is absolutely stunning as a display
of the center arrangement of organza.
Above: The lower back of the
gown is an opaque swimsuit style vee with an overnet of sheer illusion
at the upper back. Closure of the gown is with a 26 inch zipper
that begins at the top of the wedding neck and ends at the vee point of
the dropped Basque. 19 satin covered buttons create a delicate old
fashioned appearance and are actually false cover of the zipper.
They run the length of the illusion net and end at the wedding neck.
Above: 11 teardrop pearl
strands at the neck jabot. The 1.5 inch sheer wedding neck is
double lined for strength and features scalloped organza, sequins and
pearls.
