This dress, and 4 others (sequence T.49 to 53&A-1922) were donated by the then Marchioness of Bristol, Geraldine Georgiana Mary Hervey (née Anson) (1843-25/1/1927), as coming from her mother's wedding trousseau of 1873. However, there may be a misunderstanding where this provenance is concerned, as Geraldine Hervey's own wedding was 4 March 1862; her mothers' was 30 November 1830. The information is from a letter of the donor to the Museum. While the dresses certainly could have been part of a family trousseau, it would not have been that of the Marchioness nor her mother's.
