About MeBought from Esslemont & Macintosh, this pink bridesmaid dress was worn by Dorothy Crossan Jnr. to her friend's wedding in 1982 when she was twenty-five years old. The romantic style, with sweetheart neckline, full length and pearl and lace edging is typical of the decade. The dress is displayed with the bridesmaid's satin court shoes.
