1980s Sarah Whitworth Silk Princess Wedding Dress With Boned Corset & Bustle Train S M

A super rare 1980s fairytale gown in ivory silk by British designer Sarah Whitworth - very similar to coveted pieces by Catherine Rayner. Features a boned corset bodice, a sweetheart neckline and a lace-up back that nips in the waist. Sculpted puff sleeves taper to fitted cuffs with a row of tiny covered buttons. Silk is draped across the hip and falls into an extremely long train. Loop it around the hip on its buttons and it gathers into a sculptural rosette bustle, so you can dance all night. Romantic, a little Victorian, and made to be remembered. best on S or small M (UK 8-10) - the corset makes the fit adjustible to size XS (UK 6) and M (UK 12); model is size XS and 5ft3'' label reads Sarah Whitworth measurements in inches: chest 36'' / waist up to 28'' / hips up to 46'' / front length 53'' / train approx. 85'' from waist pure silk very good condition; a few marks to the underside of the bustle train - not noticeable unless seen up close
