: Re: [h-cost] Wedding in 1882
The dress you describe in the photo sounds like Fancy Dress costume. I have
a great picture of my Great Grandfather and his daughter in historically
inspired fancy dress, ca. 1900 or so. They lived in Vienna, Austria. I am
waiting for the right vintage ball to copy

Early in 1882 she was probably wearing a dress with only a small bustle

I have three wedding gowns of this period, 1879
On a recent trip home I found a letter written by my great grandmother to
her sister describing her daughter's wedding, which I have been trying to
transcribe. The wedding took place at home and the bride's attire was
described as a simple costume.Her veil was described, but not the
, especially
after reading this letter.
