Vintage 1950's I. Magnin Wedding Gown / Dress
Spectacular Audrey Hepburn style 50's wedding gown ensemble including the dress, head piece and veil, detachable train, and jacket. The fabric is a gorgeous cotton rayon acetate satin damask that's lined in taffeta on the jacket and train, and a stiffening fabric for the dress. The head piece and dress have the I. Magnin label, and the veiling is a little shredded and could be replaced. I've tried to show how incredibly versatile the ensemble is in my photos, because the train can be left long, as in the first photo, or buttoned with the inside buttons and loops for a more Marie Antoinette look. The dress alone is quite beautiful, and could be worn with the dress and train, or with the jacket, or all three. About a size 2-4, the dress measures approx. up to 36 1/2" bust, 25" waist, 15 1/2" waist length, full hips, and 43" skirt length. The jacket, with detachable underarm guards, measures approx. 16" across the shoulders, 37" bust, 27" waist, and 15" waist length. The train at its longest point is 63", and it attaches to the dress with hooks and eyes and has a loop 15" from the middle of the hem. It really does look gorgeous when the puffs are used. There is a faint brownish spot near the hem (photo available) and there is some slight soiling on the hem edge, but it doesn't show much. It's one of the loveliest 50's wedding gown ensemble I've ever seen, in a beautiful ivory color, and other than the things I've mentioned, its in excellent condition. More photos are available upon request.
