EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning wedding dress, worn by Miss Armour in 1878 at her wedding to Reverend John Baird, is a true masterpiece of Victorian fashion. Made of cream corded silk and wool, this dress exudes elegance and sophistication. The small standing collar and princessline silhouette with pleated silk satin panel create a timeless look that is both classic and romantic.
The full-length sleeves and skirt add a touch of drama to the ensemble, while the delicate bows and intricate detailing on the bustle and fishtail give it an air of luxury. It's clear that every detail was carefully crafted to make this dress truly special for such an important occasion.
This print captures not only the beauty of the dress itself but also the history behind it. From its origins in Glasgow at 335 Bath Street to its significance as part of Jessie Morrison Inglis' wedding day attire, this dress tells a story that spans generations.
As we admire this piece from the Glasgow Museums Collection, we can't help but be transported back in time to an era when weddings were grand affairs filled with tradition and romance. This dress is a reminder of how fashion has evolved over the years while still retaining elements of timeless beauty.
