Mrs Wills was first cousin to HM the Queen and a Lady in Waiting to HRH Princess Margaret and they regularly played host to the royal family. This dress was included in a bundle of old clothes belonging to Princess Margaret that Mrs Wills had been asked to sort through and either to donate to charity or burn. The vendor's mother picked out this particular dress thinking her daughter (who would have been a teenager at the time) might like it. Suffice to say the young girl declared she 'wouldn't be seen dead in it' and it has remained in a drawer wrapped in tissue paper ever since. CONDITION REPORT: Good condition, no problems

Lot 52
A Charles Frederick Worth visiting dress, circa 1875, the jacket-like bodice with ivory waist stay printed in gold 'Worth, 7 Rue de la Paix, Paris', of puce silk faille trimmed with pale blue silk with gold satin stripes, the lapel bands and cuffs inset with ivory lace, the sleeves with slash-effects at the cuffs revealing striped silk, the rear basque tails with off-centre bow and ribbons; the skirt with draped striped ribbon bands, with rich tasselled gold passementerie to the puce side panel, the exposed inner skirt of tiered pleats of striped silk, bust 92cm, 36in, waist 69cm, 27in (2)Provenance: From the collection of Rosina Rossellini. CONDITION REPORT: The fabric is in remarkably fresh condition. Slight wear to silk lining on inside rear collar. The basque bodice is fastened by a replaced hook and eye - there would have been something more substantial originally in terms of a fastening. I suspect there was a corseted under-bodice perhaps with a lace infill that would have been shown at the front. I think the waiststay would have been attached to that originally? Skirt with wear to narrow satin waistband edge and at closure area. The waistband and corresponding rear pleats area have been let out to widen. Slight moth damage to inside hem dust ruffle. Passementerie, fringing and pleats are all good.
