Cream colored with elaborate monochrome floral motif hand embroidery. Hand knotted silk fringe edging. Three tiered cape with wide curved collar tier, scoop curved finger-tip tier and a gathered skirt tier attached at inner bodice waist. Sleeveless inner bodice. Cape is open at front with single self braided band and frog button closure. Shirring at opening edges below frog closure. Full light weight silk crepe lining.
Label:
"TITANIC" (motion picture production label)
Approximate measurements:
Bust, measured inner bodice x 2 - 48"
Center back length, measured from collar fold to hem edge - 51"
Condition:
Overall the appearance of this garment is very good. There have been professional repairs made to some areas of wear, mostly at the collar. These areas have been backed with light weight fine innerfacing fabric and silk. These repairs have reinforced the garment and made it wearable. The lining is completely intact and strong. There are also light wear and age spots throughout.
