A few years ago in a Costume Society of America journal there was an
article on this same wedding dress, there might have even been a
pattern diagram. It might have been 1990: "Fashion on the Frontier."
Can't find the issue at the moment. I seem to recall the owner was
heading west to get married there.

If you zoom in you will see that there is lace coming from the bodice
peaking up from behind the skirt. Something is going on in the back. Maybe some
kind of tail on the "vest". Or the vest may be attached to the bodice, although
it doesn't really look it.
Someone in San Francisco run check it out for us. :-P
