Gorgeous Antique c1890s Factory Silk Taffeta Pink Bustle Dress for Large Bisque For Sale

This is a gorgeous antique circa 1890s factory pink bustle dress for a larger bisque doll! The dress has a beautiful construction with a large bustle, large bustle bow in the back, lace trim all over and a beautiful pink and white square pattern. The collar is a nautical-type collar. The doll modeling the dress is 22" tall and the dress just barely hides her shoes, so I am guesstimating this dress would be better for a 23-24" doll, but please judge the size from the measurements given as each collector may have a preference of how long or short the dress lies on the legs. The dress measures 17 inches from the tip of the shoulder to the bottom edge of the dress. The dress measures 5.5 inches from one shoulder seam to the other shoulder seam. Each sleeve measures 6 inches from the shoulder seam to the end of the sleeve cuff. The dress measures 7 inches wide across at the waist. The waist circumference measures approximately 15.5 inches all the way around the waist of the doll. The dress is in absolutely phenomenal condition for its age! It has one small tear (see close up photo) in the bottom front but otherwise is very strong and sturdy. It hooks in the back. The dress is fully lined, the lining on the bodice has some age spotting inside but the outside of the dress is remarkable, not faded in any way! The doll is a model only and is not for sale in this listing. only the DRESS is for sale in this listing. Excellent condition!Non-smoking home. I will combine shipping with other items in my shop.
