Embrace the elegance of a bygone era with this rare Edwardian 1920s white batiste cotton combination. This antique piece exudes delicate charm, featuring a beautifully rounded lace-embellished collar and arm openings. The original ribbon in the lace had deteriorated and was unsalvageable, so it has been replaced with colorfast peach two-faced satin ribbon, maintaining the integrity of its antique craftsmanship. The crotch fastens with two dainty Mother of Pearl buttons, adding a refined and authentic touch. A divine cutwork trim at the hemline completes this exquisite design. It is a truly rare find for collectors of vintage and antique fashion.
