Hi Marcie:
I'd just swoon to see a dress like this "in person"! It's wonderful, as I'm sure every single one would be. Thanks for sharing the information. I'll see if I can't find their catalog.
Have a great day!
xoxo

Just toooo gorgeous! I think I'm going to ask my husband to ask me again to marry him, LOL! Early this year I was at the Hermitage in Amsterdam where they had all the fab dresses and garments on display of the Russian court. Reminds me a bit. TFS, Ira

Beautiful dress, to look at, but to wear? Can you imagine what you would have to go through to get your waist size down to that? No wonder the ladies used to faint all the time.

Oh how incredible... I once had a waist--- 'lost' mine somewhere along the way ;-)
What a beautiful dress in the photo and I'll bet seeing the collection is amazing.
You always show the most fabulous things on your blog, Miss Marcie!
