1900s Batiste Cotton Lingerie Dress w/Silk Embroidered Roses & Blouse Overlay

This exquisite 1915 lingerie dress is crafted from feather-light batiste cotton. It is entirely hand-embroidered in broderie Richelieu with French-knot pink rose centers, surrounded by shadow-work foliage in soft green and white, and scattered broderie anglaise “blue dot” sprinkles—all worked in silk floss. The under-bodice is fashioned from fine silk netted tulle, while the cap sleeves are edged in a pink picot trim. Completing the ensemble is a matching embroidered Bertha bodice overlay, adorned in Calais silk bobbinet tulle on dotted Swiss lace. The accompanying guimpe features delicate ¾-length sleeves and a charming little Medici frill framing the back neck. The gloriously full skirt, gathered to perfection, is embellished with sweeping Broderie Richelieu garlands and falls in two graceful tiers with a gentle train at the back. She is finished with an eye-hook closure at the waist and a discreet row of tiny snap buttons down the bodice front—every detail a testament to the early 1900s Edwardian era.

This timeless piece has been meticulously restored through our Immersion Restoration Process and is ready to be reimagined into your vision of perfection.

Gown Sizing: Vintage gowns tend to run small, but at Little Rose Bridal we can tailor them to fit today's modern bride! Most gowns can be altered up to four sizes, or we can fully reconstruct the gown for a complete transformation.

Bodice Closure Options: Because our vintage gowns are carefully restored by immersion cleaning, this requires the removal of original buttons to prevent metal oxidation on the fabric, giving brides the opportunity to customize their back closure. If the original buttons can be saved, we’ll restore them. Otherwise, choose from silk bridal buttons, freshwater pearl buttons, crystal buttons, embroidered buttons, a mesh zipper, or a corset insert to finish off your unique dream wedding gown.

Extras: We provide fully restored vintage veils, brand new hand-sewn premium nylon veils, and luxurious silk veils. Custom petticoats and era-appropriate slips are also available upon request. Reach out today to transform your dream wedding gown into reality!

Shipping: Each gown is meticulously packaged with the greatest of care. Tracking will be available and all our gowns are fully insured. Giving you peace of mind, to know your beautiful vintage wedding dress will arrive safely and as expected.
