1940s Button Back Wedding Dress with Sheer Neckline & Sleeves, Lace Detailing

Description: Gorgeous vintage wedding dress, featuring buttons down the back, a sheer yoke w/ ruffled lace, and a princess seam bodice. The inside seams are a combination of raw, pinked (pinking shears used to prevent fraying, as opposed to a serger), or finished on a fabric edge. It looks like the sheer overlay on the bodice was hand stitched. The styling and details suggest this dates to the 1940s. No tags, so refer to measurements below for fit. Measurements taken flat; double for circumference for bust/waist. Measurements:Bust (armpit to armpit): 16 inchesWaist (across): 11 1/4 inchesSleeves (shoulder seam to lace cuff): 20 inchesLace Cuff: 3 1/2 inchesFront Length (from center front): 57 inchesBack Length, including train (from center back under collar): 82 inches Condition Notes: The train is torn in a few spots, and there's a stain as well. Some of the buttons have rusted through, and the fabric on many of them is fraying or torn. The left sleeve has a section of seam that's come unsewn. The armpits show very mild discoloration (too light to show up in photos on the dress form, but visible in the right armpit especially when held up to the light. The dress form has a 33 inch bust, 26.5 inch waist, 32.5 inch drop waist, and 36 inch hips. She stands 57 inches tall at the shoulders. The dress was a tad small for my dress form, and I was unable to button it all the way. If interested in more than one item, shipping is automatically combined at check-out based on package weight.
