Victorian Child's
Dress
This lovely vintage white cotton lawn dress is lavishly accented
with lace
and is the perfect dress for the little Victorian lady in your life.
The dress has a slightly raised collar edged in lace. The yoke of
the dress is a combination of white lace surrounding a lovely machine
embroidered pattern. Vertical strips of pastel pink ribbon is
sandwiched between two vertical strips of lace, beginning on each
shoulder and continuing through the front and back to the waistline.
The high waistline is also accented with pale pink ribbon which ties
in the back, allowing for some adjustment. Several tiny vertical pin
pleats begin under the yoke of the bodice and continue to the
waistline. The sleeves of the dress are full and accented with a
horizontal band of lace. The lower edge of the sleeves is also done
in lace with pastel pink ribbon adding the final touch. The skirt is
slightly gathered into the high waistline and falls ankle to floor
length. The skirt is decorated with several horizontal rows of lace.
The lower portion of the dress is a slightly heavier cotton accented
with tiny openwork flowers and a scrolling design. The dress has a
center back button closure. The buttons are hidden behind a material
placket. The dress is in wonderful condition and I believe it may
have been reworked. The dress has not lost any of it's early 1900
charm and is in very wearable condition. It would also make a
beautiful display piece! The dress measures approximately:
bustline=22"; shoulder to shoulder measurement=10"; high waistline
measurement=23"; bodice length (center back neckline to empire
waistline)=7"; skirt length=17 1/2"; overall length=25". The dress
is in very good condition.

Vintage Child's Lawn
Dress
This vintage child's white lawn dress is so sweet. The dress has a
rounded
neckline and beautiful whitework/embroidery across the upper portion
of the bodice. A center back button closure begins at the neckline
and continues through the waistline. The long sleeves have a slight
curve and are made in the coat sleeve style - top and bottom seam.
The dress has a fitted waistline with a wide set-in waistband. The
skirt is nicely gathered into the waistband and it also features
whitework and embroidery. Horizontal rows of embroidery decorate the
skirt with a wide, heavily decorated horizontal band encircling the
lower protion of the skirt. There is a wide hem, so the dress could
be lengthened. The dress is in very good condition, but does have a
few small scattered holes. These would not be noticeable when worn
over a slip. The dress measures: chest=26"; shoulder to shoulder
width=11 1/2"; waistline=21"; bodice length=13 1/2"; skirt length=29"
and overall length (shoulders to hemline)=43".

Vintage Tan Straw Child's
Hat
This vintage hat is tan straw. The straw is woven in a circular
design
which has a ribbed look. The back of the hat has a straw trim which
does have some damage on one side. The entire hat is lined with a
taupe colored lining inside the brim and on the inside of the back.
The lining on the outer edge of the brim is wired. This wire
continues around the outer edge of the hat. Cream colored cotton
lines the upper portion of the hat and a purple colored paper and net
lines the crown. There is evidence of the original ties which are
very thin, dark brown ribbon. The ties have been replaced and the
side flowers added. There is some wear to the lining and the hat in
general, but still in very good condition.

1870's Vintage Velvet Baby
Bonnet
Perfect for any doll as an added finishing touch. This vintage
bonnet came
from an estate of a lady in her late 80's. She said that the bonnet
came from her grandmother's trunk and she believes that it might have
been her grandfather's. The top of the bonnet is constructed of a
deep rich burgandy velvet and the underside is lined with brushed
cotton and a silk ruffle. Simple muslin ties adorn the bonnet with
lace sewn at the bottom. There are small brown stains on each lace
piece, but this should clean up. The top of the bonnet is a small
half helmet shape and it has the look of what a little baby boy would
have worn at that time. The little silk ruffle is hand stitched to
the underside of the bonnet along with the brushed cotton lining.
This piece is darling and there are NO rips or tears or staining on
the velvet. Very good condition, except for the staining at the
bottom of the ties. This would look wonderful on an older doll.
Bonnet is for a newborn up to 3 monthes. Very good condition.

panel and 2" wide silk trim that travels all around the first tiered
