Original Edwardian dress from the first decade of the 20th century, likely somewhere between 1905 and 1909), in the most amazing shade of medium purple trending toward plum.

  • Two silk fabrics - one with tiny cream-colored clovers creating a paisley pattern, one solid 
  • Two varieties of soft, ecru lace of (either cotton or silk, possibly a blend), one with purple centered flower medallions
  • Bodice, lined in solid cream-colored cotton, has short boning from waist to below bust, all the way around
  • Mancheron styling at upper sleeves, lace lower sleeves with no closure (they have slits for easy on/off)
  • Unlined (because you will be wearing petticoats -- not included) skirt has decorative pleating details, and is longer at back
  • Both pieces close at back with (lots and lots of) hooks&eyes

Shown with Delphine the Mannequin wearing two of my antique petticoats, which are not included.

Labels: none

Fiber/Care: silk with cotton lace and lining / were I keeping it, I would wash it carefully after the first wearing, but I recommend you have it dry-cleaned as needed, and insist it be laundered separately, in a net bag (always clean your antique and vintage garments before storing them away for any lengthy period -- here's why)

Condition: Really good, and excellent for its age (about 115). Comes to you uncleaned, with that "I'm dusty" scent (no mildew, nothing unpleasant), and with various stains on the lower part of the skirt, particularly at the edge (all are inconspicuous, and I suspect most will lift with cleaning, though I make no guarantees). Some of the lace is coming off the top of the collar. There are a few minor, scattered teensy tiny holes, plus stress holes near the topmost skirt hook&eye (as shown in photo collage, but does not show when worn, as it's concealed beneath the bodice cummerbund). Dress is sound and wearable. Do so gently and with care. 

Garment Measurements:
 BODICE - 
  shoulders: 15"/38cm
  sleeves: 24"/61cm
  bodice length: 17"/43cm
  bust: 34"/86.25cm 
  waist: 24"/61cm
 SKIRT - 
  waist: 24"/61cm (you can move the top eye to gain 1/2", but that's it)
  hips (9" below waist): 42"/106.65cm
  length: 42"/ 106.5cm at front, 45.5"/115.5cm at back

The dress is a near-perfect fit on Delphine, who measures b: 33.5", w: 23". Remember, though, she has no give at all. So, if your natural waist is 25" or even possibly 26", this may work for you, depending on how fond you are of breathing. My 26.5-27" waist would NOT fit, even corseted, and I am devastated. Also, Delphine is 6'2" tall, so the dress will likely be longer on you! It is a floor-length skirt.

Unsafe Buckle - Risky for tiny fingers
Special Size Type: Toddler (1-4 Years), Size: 12-18 Months Toddler, Color: Stuart Navy Canvas
I at first really liked these sandals, however once my son started learning how to undo the Velcro strap, his fingers began to catch painfully in the decorative buckle. Now I see the sandals as an unsafe option and have subsequently tossed them.

Cute but a little stiff
These are cute and well made. I think the sole is a little too stiff for babies learning how to walk that are used to bare feet. The back of the sandal also slips down sometimes. Overall a decent purchase if you just need something for looks more than function.

Slip free bottom and Durable!
Size: 12-18 Months Toddler, Color: Sebastian Shark Blue, Size: 12-18 Months Toddler, Color: Sebastian Shark Blue
These are very durable and have the flexibility for your little ones foot to grow as it should! They provide elastic-like material around the ankle for easy on & off, have a slip-free bottom, and are soft and cozy. These come in many different designs as well, I would say these are definitely worth the money! Plus, super cute!!
