Image description

This dress is associated with Philadelphia Quaker bride, Lydia Poultney (1788-1871), who married James B. Thompson in 1809. The wedding dress, while devoid of superfluous ornament, is made of an elegant silk and fashion conscious: a high waist and short puffed sleeves were a la mode in 1809. For the wedding ceremony at the meeting house, bonnets with veils and neckerchiefs would also have been worn.
