CST_00422 & CST_00423 > Wedding Dress & Wedding Crown, donated by Lena Stylianou, lace and tulle, 1957
Lena Stylianou donated this gorgeous wedding dress for the CVAR costumes collection. It is a strapless 1957 dress with a sweetheart neckline made of beige lace and tulle layers. It has a fitted, boned bodice decorated with pearl drop appliques, shiny leaf shapes and a large corsage of white roses on the left side of the skirt. A cropped matching lace bolero with long sleeves and wide lapels completes the outfit. The dress has a single hook-and-eye closure at the neck.
Its wedding crown (cst_00423) is made of wire, beige lace and decorative appliques that are the same as on the accompanying wedding dress.
