Irish wedding dresses from the late Victorian/Edwardian periods (late 1800s-early 1900s) generally had long skirts, tailored bodices, and elaborate lace, frequently with floral or geometric designs. Queen Victoria's choice popularized white. Around 1910, Edwardian silhouettes evolved to be more slender, with higher waists and longer corsets. High necklines, sometimes "dog collar" style, and fitted sleeves (occasionally puffed at the shoulder) were common. These gowns boasted beautiful embellishments like embroidery, beads, lace, and luxurious fabrics.
