Reception dress

of the Belle Epoque

Period: around 1912-13 

We crafted this tea gown from silk cotton-damask after an original cut from the year 1913. Hems and neckline are furnished with antique feather boa and underlaid with pleated organza ribbon. A tunic made of silk organza with antique lace is worn over the actual dress. Opulent ribbons, as they are used in this creation, were temporary very fashionable.
