The gown has 32 covered buttons down the back, they are working, have all the loops and none are missing, there is a hidden panel with snaps underneath. The sleeves are gathered at the shoulder and fitted to a pointed cuff with four buttons. The skirt gathers below the waist, it is about floor length in the front with a rounded  flowing four foot train in the back.

Overall excellent vintage condition, clean, no under arm stains, no tears. There are some age related flaws; there is a streak of light rust on the tulle at the neck line, some spots on the skirt; a little soil on one side near the hem and some rust spots to one side ( a dart could be added here), the dress shows well as is, could use a professional cleaning and/ or pressing to be at it's best.
