Emily Gowns

[smitchik]

I was wondering if anyone heard of Emily Gowns out of NY.
They were on 8th Avenue. The gown was worn in 1950.
I still have the box it was packed it. The gown is beautiful with gloves, shoes, veil, etc. Also the 3 piece Bridal Bedroom Set lingerie (as marked on box). Any info would be great.
As soon as my camera is done charging I will be sending some pics!!!

About half way down there is a wedding gown that says it sold at Emily, 5th Avenue. Could that be it? Not a label but a store?

Can't wait to see more pictures!

Yes that is the name of the store on the box. I haven't had any luck finding a label on the dress itself. It is stunning!
It would be beautiful on a bride even today! Thanks for the info. Pam

Just like that site did with showing old magazine pictures, now you will want to get on Ebay and find all the old bridal magazines. I just bought a couple of 60s ones, but I don't have anything from the 50s.

Sometimes the label is not where you think. It could be on a side seam, at the waist, or somwhere in the skirt. I have been surprised where i have found them. If a bride bought it and it had to be taken in quite a bit, it is possible the tag was lost in the process.
