If I'd seen this gown as a kid, I would have danced up and down with excitement. Okay, that's a lie: I'd probably do the same if I saw it right now.
Petal pink. Moiré taffeta. A sculpted bodice. Gorgeous plunging neckline. Whew. Usually 1860s gowns go a little too hard for me, but this is just perfection. Though it's 1863, you could certainly see it in the 20th century with no problem.
We're solidly in the crinoline ages, but I think the trim work certainly foreshadows the later shape of the bustle.
Alas, though the gown is from the Museum of Vancouver, I have no further details. Either way, it is an absolute gorgeous work of art.
