SALE STUNNING Beaded Lace Edwardian Skirt!!!

Clothing : Antique

 

For a premiere skirt to add to your collection consider this wonderful lace and beaded Edwardian skirt with many fabulous details! I purchased this skirt about 10+ years ago from a private collector, and actually fit into the waist at one time (with a corset of course).

The only reason I am now selling this skirt is that I sadly cannot fit into a tiny waist - even with a corset.

That opens the door for some extremely lucky person to now own this fantastic skirt, one of a kind, with its incredible beading and triple flounce.

The skirt appears to be an Edwardian bustle or Victorian skirt, from the late 1800's. With its fine quality of trimmed beaded lace, it was custom made for a high-quality lady of the period.

If you start at the top front, you will see an inset waist, with beautiful tailoring to accentuate the waist. In order to show off the waistline, the skirt pieces were cut into sections and re-sewn together to offer the most attractive view of the waist and hipline. The two white dots in the photos are pins holding the skirt in place.

From the front, the waterfall effect of the skirt is obvious. It is clean; it is straight lines going down the front, with the focus on the waistline, the fall of the skirt and the amazing stunning beading and lace that trims this dress.

From the back, the skirt shows off its real beauty. Meant to be used with a bustle or not, the skirt construction is AMAZING. With multiple hand-sewn gathers to layer correctly, and with a fall meant for a princess, this skirt is meant to impress from all sides.

The interior has a lining, and the bottom is reinforced with tiny stitches and a velvet band to keep the lining moving with the skirt. The skirt has minor wear, with three catches on the back down the open back slit, with three additional catches sewn onto the waistband to catch onto the blouse of your choice. There are two internal fabric loops to hang the skirt if desired.

I never wore this skirt (except for trying it on) and it is in the same excellent condition as when I purchased it.

Isn't it time you were noticed for your excellent taste in clothing?
