Monaco

"Monaco" is a fabulous bridal ensemble, much imitated in its time. The gown has a bodice of lace over satin with collar, cuffs and bowed belt of satin. The skirt is a confection of layered tulle with hand-fashioned ribbon roses, and a separate tie-on net slip. With "pearl"-trimmed headpiece and veil, bridal bouquet, matching shoes, seamed hose and jewelry.

Circa 1950. Designed by Timothy Alberts for the Gene Marshall Collection.
