Strands of pearls accented the open heart- shaped back which was held together by a pearl brooch. A crinkle plated cuff created the top of the sheer lace leg-o-mutton sleeves. Matching lace appliques and crinkle pleated scallops enhanced the hemline and the Cathedral length train. The same motif decorated the large candy box bow at the back of the Basque waistline. pa The bride wore hair combs heavily beaded with pearls and interspersed with baby's breath in her hair.
