This ivory silk wedding dress, designed by M.A. van Asch, dates from the early 20th century.

This piece exemplifies the fashion of the period, known for its elegant and romantic styles.
Comments
Anna Clara Lieftinck married Jonkheer Hendrik T. Teding van Berkhout in Groningen on 8 November 1908. This dress is incomplete: it was originally worn with a wide, ruffled lace flounce that covered the upper part of the bodice from shoulder to shoulder. The bride had borrowed the flounce, as well as a lace veil, from the groom’s younger married sister.
