An antique Irish crochet lace dress with a 3-dimensional floral pattern as part of the design. Due to the neckline/length, I suspect it was an overdress from the Edwardian era. This dress is handmade, and would have taken many hours to make. It fastens with hook and eyes at the front waist and also hooks on the sleeves (I forgot to fasten these when photographing the dress). The crochet lace is a cotton lace and ivory in color.

Size: xs/s

Bust: 36" (has a small amount of of flexibility because it's crochet)

Waist: 24-25"

Hip: open

Length: 44-45"

Shoulder: 16" with stretch (as can be seen in photographs, this looks good as a drop shoulder)

Sleeve length (from shoulder seam to cuff): 24" 

Condition: Very good. A few unnoticeable repairs. A very faint pink mark on right sleeve that lightened when I treated it but didn't complete come out--it's not noticeable due to faintness and location (see close-up photo). A few areas of faint yellowing that also lightened but didn't completely lift when I cleaned the dress--these aren't noticeable when the dress is being worn. Dress presents beautifully.
