Size 4 Wedding Dress - Beautiful 1960s Satin & Lace Empire Bridal Gown with Train by Priscilla of Boston - 60s NWT Deadstock - Bust 33

$ 379.99

Traditional styling combines with touches of hippie innocence in this very pretty wedding dress! It's an early 1960s bridal gown with a sheer raised collar and net sleeves, Empire bustline and A-line satin skirt. There are hand-applied pearls artfully placed to the front torso, collar and upper sleeves, with lace appliques trailing the front skirt. Has satin bow accents to the wrists and rich gathers along the back raised waist, trailing long and beautifully into a train that extends about three feet behind the bride. Original $500 price tag attached from the early 1960s; this would be about $3800 in today's dollars.
