Wedding dress

Ivory coloured full length dress in two layers, with a fine gauze silk over silk satin.  Braided shoelace straps, fitted bodice and full skirt with decorative flounces.  Eighteen covered buttons down back.  Some damage through wear and from the metal parts of the buttons. Thought to have been designed and possibly also made by either Daisy or Violet Anderson (see DC 022).
