Yellow Victorian Southern Belle Period Costume Dress 4X 5X
Here is a custom made dress in the style of around 1859
It is two pieces
There is a lot of wide ruffled wide lace
An accent of striped satin ovals circle the bodice top and overskirt hem
The red flowers are pinned on, so you can change the look of the dress
Two matching red floral hair clips are included
The bodice is boned and fastens in the back with hooks and eyes
It is a flat corset style
There are sleeves that have an elastic top so they can either be on top of your shoulder or slipped down onto your arm
The skirt has a white satin ruffled underskirt and a soft yellow overskirt
It fastens with two buttons for extra security
All seams are neatly finished and all elastic is hidden or soft so it won’t hurt your delicate skin
Hand made with love by Aunt Debbie
That is me in the picture. I am too short for the dress, so the skirt is actually longer
