Victorian Ball Gown, 1872 Bustle Style by SewHistorical
850.00 USD
A gorgeous off-the-shoulder Victorian ball gown in poly dupioni silk. This gown consists of 3 separate pieces: Parisian bustle skirt, drape over skirt, and bodice with puffed sleeves and bertha (pleated piece over chest and shoulders). Bodice is flat-lined in 100% cotton muslin, while overskirt is lined with a contrasting taffeta to show off those beautiful folds. Choose your trim that will be added to the bertha, the over skirt edge, the skirt drapes at front and bustle pouf at back, and the over sleeves. This dress is intended to be worn over period undergarments, including corset and cage bustle to give it the correct form.
This dress is made to order in your size for your next Dickens ball, or it can be customized with a Steampunk flair! I can make this to your specifications with your design ideas in mind. Fabrics, trims, and colors are chosen by you, or I would be happy to assist with design and fabric suggestions. Please send me a message and we can get to work designing your dream gown!
**The price listed is a base price for bodice, bustle skirt, and overskirt in fabrics shown with MINIMAL trim. It does not include the shown beading, pleated ribbon, fringe or bows. It will include one simple trim style of your choice. Please message me to discuss trimming options and pricing differences.**
