Wedding White






This wedding gown done in the 1840's style is close to what Queen Victoria wore on her wedding day. Made from white satin with a beautiful bridal lace along the bottom of the skirt {made separately}. Her overskirt/train is from my own wedding gown train. It's made from a very thin fabric but I don't remember what it was we bought to make my train over skirt from. Her bodice has a bertha style collar that is covered with the same design bridal lace that is also gracing the bottom of the bodice and a smaller version of what is on the skirt.
The drapes on the over skirt are held back with pieces of the same lace. It also backs the white roses and white flowers in her bouquet and her headdress.
