Edwardian–Early 1920s Sheer Silk Chiffon Lingerie Dress with Ribbon-Work Flowers | Wiith Added Sheer Belt

An ethereal 1918–1925 sheer silk chiffon lingerie dress, and whisper-light — a rare survival from the romantic Edwardian-to-Art Deco transition.

Made from airy ivory silk chiffon, this piece floats delicately over the body, featuring hand-applied ribbon-work roses, embroidered net lace panels, and the softest transparent drape.

Originally part of a bridal trousseau or boudoir ensemble, this dress would have been worn over a silk slip or corset cover. The sheer  ribbon belt (added by me) recreates its original waist tie, allowing it to be cinched softly at the waist — a modern yet historically faithful restoration detail.

Details

• Era: Circa 1918–1925 (late Edwardian to early 1920s)
• Fabric: Sheer ivory silk chiffon (unlined)
• Lace: Fine tambour and embroidered net lace
• Embellishment: Original Hand-applied ribbon-work floral appliqués in shades of pink, lilac, yellow, and green

Wear it today layered over a silk or nude slip for an ethereal bohemian bridal look — perfect for an intimate wedding, elopement, or honeymoon morning.

Style it with a delicate veil, silk ribbon belt, or barefoot sandals for a dreamlike, effortless elegance.

It also makes a stunning editorial or boudoir piece, or a collector’s trousseau gown displayed as wearable art.

This sheer silk chiffon lingerie slip dress could absolutely be worn as a modern wedding dress, especially for brides who love a romantic, ethereal, vintage aesthetic.

It’s perfect for bohemian, beach, garden, or elopement weddings, or even as a bridal morning / honeymoon gown.

PLEASE CHECK MEASUREMENTS BEFORE PURCHASE! Antique hand made items where handmade and differ to standard sizes. Please check the measurements closely for determining fit. I do not give sizes for vintage items as women's sizes are not standardized and a majority of these dresses were homemade or specialty made to fit one person. Also if vintage items are size tagged they usually run smalller comparing to the actual sizes. A good method to check is to measure a similar item that fits and compare.
If you have any questions about the fit feel free to ask, I am happy to help.

Please Note :
Any accessories used in the picture are not included, there are there to show how the outfit could be worn or a decorative object. I need to be honest. I sell Vintage and Antique Clothing and I would say anything before 30s should be treated with care and worn with care. Mostly these items will be fragile especially 20s silk or Edwardian very fine Muslin. Some can not handle stress and will tear easily. Should be bought a size bigger where possible or should be a little loose on.

Things to consider when buying Edwardian or Victorian clothing:If an item is marked XS but looks loose and big! It maybe has a Medium Shoulder and Hip but the waist is Tiny! (Corsets!). It may look big and loose but the shoulders or opening of the arm will be small, or the waist.
- The sleeves may not be long to the wrist but more of a 3/4.
- Buttons also may vary in shape and size on the same blouse, these blouses are old and would have lost buttons along the way.

Happy to answer any question.
Thanks for visiting.
