Colorful
and conspicuous?
Indeed.
Sexy and scintillating?
Without a doubt.
Guaranteed to turn heads?
Let me just put it this way.
I've practically done all the work for you. All
you have to do is add a
sassy little walk and perhaps a bit
of cleavage.
They'll never know what hit 'em.
With a reversible bodice and TWO skirts, it's like getting several outfits for the price of one!
(Even though this is listed as a "costume", it is far superior to "costume-quality" garments...believe me, there is a difference. The extremely high quality of my fabrics and workmanship sets my clothing apart from many other historical garment makers and costume sellers you'll find.)
The
Bodice
The first side is made with a drop-dead gorgeous, high-quality jacquard fabric with a VERY colorful woven design in too many colors to name. It reverses to a lovely blue and green jacquard fabric. This bodice will go with many different colors of skirts and chemises. Natural cording laces up the front through 14 silver grommets and at the shoulders through 4 grommets for easy torso adjustment. The cording ends are crimped with aiglets for ease of threading and a nice, finished look.
It is innerlined with heavy decor weight interfacing, has 1/4" spring steel boning (plastic coated with rounded ends) in the front sections and poly boning in the side seams. What does this mean to you? Superb support and excellent durability while still being reasonably comfortable.
This sturdy bodice is designed to achieve the period-correct conical figure by pressing the chest and stomach flat and squeezing the bosom up above the neckline. (Unfortunately, my dress form can't "squish", but hopefully you get the idea!).
YOUR chest and waist measurements should be at least the same as the Bodice and can be up to 3 inches LARGER. The tighter the bodice, the more "push up" and "cinching" effect.
The
Cotton Skirt
is made with four full yards of cornflower blue 100% cotton fabric in a cool, comfortable weight (not cheap broadcloth). The skirt will be a great addition to your garb collection. It has a drawstring waist for the perfect fit. (I prefer drawstring to elastic in the skirts of my own costumes since they can be worn very tightly under a gown or bodice without riding down.)
Circumference is a full 144 inches. Serger hemmed to desired length up to 43".
The
Crinkle Gauze Skirt
Is
made with extremely lightweight
and somewhat sheer creamy ivory
crinkle cotton gauze fabric. It
drapes delightfully and because
it is so lightweight, it doesn't
add the normal bulk of a second
skirt. (I always wear one gauze
skirt with one cotton skirt rather
than two cotton skirts because
with two standard weight cotton
skirts makes too much bulk at my
waist. )
Circumference is approx. 150". Serger hemmed to desired length up to 43".
Cavalier Lady Chemise, belt, pewter mug and mug strap are NOT included but all are available for purchase.
