Description

This antique christening gown and matching underslip date from the early 1900s and they are embellished with white on white embroidery at the bodice and along the hem. The dress is a good, wearable size. (The antique gowns tend to be very, very small and to not fit modern babies.) The chest is 19” and the gown is 30” long as measured from the shoulders. The inseam of the sleeves is 6” including the lace at the cuff. The neck is 11”, allowing a slight overlap. Please note, both the gown and underslip have openings at the back of the neck but they lack closures. Snaps would need to be sewn to both. Also, the embroidery is machine stitched, not done by hand. This was very common by this time and the quality is very nice.
