Wedding or graduation dress

[claireshaeffer]

This dress came from Bergdorf Goodman's Custom Salon and is dated 6-49.

It is cotton organdy and lined with acetate. It appears to have been washed. Compared to other Bergdorf and I. Magnin custom designs, the construction is not very good.

Do you think this is a wedding or graduation dress?

Joyce,
Thanks for the info about your grandmother's dress. I had the same thought based on the date, but designwise, it looks like a dress for a young girl.

How long is it actually? It's hard to tell from the photo.

Karin, it's floor length and doesn't have a train.

The date on the label is the date it was ordered--not picked up.
