Period: 1912-1913

The Titanic wedding dress, made of cream-coloured silk satin, features the typical draped skirt that became very popular from 1912 onwards. The so-called lampshade tunic (tunic with a flared hem) made of raw silk, which is embroidered with pearls over its entire surface and trimmed with white fox fur (faux fur), was one of the fashionable novelties introduced by Paul Poiret.
The silk bodice is trimmed with antique lace. The bridal veil is made of silk tulle, and the bridal wreath of wax flowers and the matching flowers on the belt are new, unworn originals from the period.
