50s Wedding Gown Sz XS Vintage Off White Lace Long Sleeve Dress Chapel Train

Description

DESCRIPTION
This is a lovely vintage wedding gown from the 1950s.  The outer layer of the dress is made out of a slightly off white floral lace, and it is lined in off white acetate.  The dress has subtle clear sequin accents along the neckline and the hem.  The dress has long sleeves, and the sleeves are sheer.  It has a fitted waist with a satin bow accent in both the front and the back, and the skirt is very full. There is tulle netting backing the lace of the skirt.  The dress closes with a metal zipper down the back.
NOTE: I displayed this dress over a crinoline to show off the fullness of the skirt.  However, the listing is just for the dress. The crinoline is not included.
SIZING
The dress does not have a size tag, but I believe it would best fit a size Extra Small.  The actual measurements are as follows:
Bust:
17 inches across, underarm to underarm (3 inches around)
Shoulders:
14.5 inches across, seam to seam
Sleeves:
22.5 inches from the shoulder seam to the end of the sleeve
Waist:
12 inches across (24 inches around)
Hips:
Full and roomy
Length:
59.5 inches down the front; 83 inches down the center of the back
Note:
These are the actual measurements of the garment, so please leave yourself room for comfort of movement. All measurements were taken with the item laying flat. The flat measurements were doubled to give an approximate measurement around.
CONDITION
This dress is in good vintage condition, but I did notice some flaws.  The bottom hem of the lining is rather soiled (see picture for example), and I also noticed a hole in the lining up near the hip.  I also noticed a small brown speck on the lace near the hem of the dress (see picture).  Most of the damage to the dress is to the lining, and the outer lace layer covers it up pretty well, so I don't think it should be too noticeable when the dress is worn!
