Description: Wedding Dress E. Gill About 1870 Just like today, many Victorian brides emulated wedding dresses worn by members of the royal family. In 1840 Queen Victoria had chosen cream satin and Honiton Lace for her wedding dress, providing an important boost to the Devon lacemaking industry. This dress was made in New Bond Street for an unknown bride. It has been altered and would originally have been worn with a wide sash. London Satin trimmed with tulle and Honiton guipure lace Given by Mrs. S.W.Siveright Museum no T.390A, B-1980 Wikipedia Loves Art at the Victoria and Albert Museum This photo of item # [1] at the Victoria and Albert Museum was contributed under the team name "UK_FGR" as part of the Wikipedia Loves Art project in February 2009.
