ANTIQUE 40s 50s THEATRICAL COSTUME GOWN

Rare antique cottage regency style opera theatrical dress. Incredible bright multi coloured butterfly floral heavy cotton fabric. Fitted steel boned bodice. 3/4 flare bell sleeve. Basque waist. Cream frill broderie anglaise detail.

Huge amount of fabric in the skirt! This would have been most likely worn with a voluminous petticoat skirt underneath.

Has a few discolourations to the lace on one sleeve and lace at the back of the neck. One of the boning wires is poking out slightly at the centre bust, easy fix. Some signs of wear to waist binding but other than that she is in pretty amazing condition for her age.
