Wedding Dress

An amazing vintage lace wedding dresses

Since I saw the lace appliqué for the bodice and skirt of Kate Middleton’s royal wedding dress by Alexander McQueen’s Sarah Burton, I have been fascinated researching traditional lace making techniques, places of excellence and how to apply a vintage lace wedding ideas into a modern wedding.

The Royal School of Needlework, based at Hampton Court Palace, was enlisted by Burton’s team to create the intricate appliquéd bodice. However despite the emphasis placed on the “Britishness” of the design, the intricate lace making motifs from the small town just outside Lille have also been rumoured to have worked into the gown by The Royal School of Needlework.

The tulle and lace making in Caudray can be traced by to the 19th Century, when the first loom was installed with parts from England. Caudray is now second only to Calais, employing 6,500 staff and exporting 80% of what they make.

During my research for vintage lace wedding dresses I came across one of the most amazing vintage lace wedding dresses that I have seen, recently sold by Augusta Auctions.

The dress is a 1940s Brussels mixed vintage lace wedding gown which has possible been made from a 1860-1870’s veil and converted into the gown. The dress was previously part of an exhibit from the Brooklyn Museum and is simply stunning! View more original vintage wedding dresses.
