A hint of peach done in the softest gauzy fabric with beautiful handwork needlepoint panels, pintucking and amazing two-tiered bell shaped skirt, all in one amazing Edwardian lawn dress.
The bodice is fashioned with two layers; there's an interior camisole-like mesh layer that closes with tiny hooks, all so very delicate and beautiful. And amazingly, this inner layer is styled with short crochet sleeves! (See second image.) The over-blouse features so many lovely details including the needlepoint panels, pintucking and ruffled mesh edge, so romantic and lovely. The sleeves are slightly A-line to mimic the shape of the bell skirt.

Condition: Structurally this dress is excellent.
*A 1 1/2" slit-like tear in the sleeve seam, one under each arm.
*Spotting throughout skirt that presents as brown or rust colored spots.
*Slight discoloration on the back of the skirt from wear.
*Spotting and discoloration around the bottom fabric piece on the lower tier of the skirt.
*The dress needs overall spot and general cleaning. This will be the most challenging part of the restoration. I have not attempted to clean and will leave that to the new owner.
*Final Sale - please ask questions...and note the cleaning issues.
The skirt part of the dress wraps and hooks at the side of the waist with tiny hooks and thread loops. The top hook is missing its loop so in order to hold it onto the mannequin for photography I closed it with a tiny clip. The loop will need to be added before the dress can be worn.
