Original Edwardian dress from the first decade of the 20th century, likely somewhere between 1905 and 1909), in the most amazing shade of medium purple trending toward plum.

  • Two silk fabrics - one with tiny cream-colored clovers creating a paisley pattern, one solid 
  • Two varieties of soft, ecru lace of (either cotton or silk, possibly a blend), one with purple centered flower medallions
  • Bodice, lined in solid cream-colored cotton, has short boning from waist to below bust, all the way around
  • Mancheron styling at upper sleeves, lace lower sleeves with no closure (they have slits for easy on/off)
  • Unlined (because you will be wearing petticoats -- not included) skirt has decorative pleating details, and is longer at back
  • Both pieces close at back with (lots and lots of) hooks&eyes

Shown with Delphine the Mannequin wearing two of my antique petticoats, which are not included.

Labels: none

Fiber/Care: silk with cotton lace and lining / were I keeping it, I would wash it carefully after the first wearing, but I recommend you have it dry-cleaned as needed, and insist it be laundered separately, in a net bag (always clean your antique and vintage garments before storing them away for any lengthy period -- here's why)

Condition: Really good, and excellent for its age (about 115). Comes to you uncleaned, with that "I'm dusty" scent (no mildew, nothing unpleasant), and with various stains on the lower part of the skirt, particularly at the edge (all are inconspicuous, and I suspect most will lift with cleaning, though I make no guarantees). Some of the lace is coming off the top of the collar. There are a few minor, scattered teensy tiny holes, plus stress holes near the topmost skirt hook&eye (as shown in photo collage, but does not show when worn, as it's concealed beneath the bodice cummerbund). Dress is sound and wearable. Do so gently and with care. 

Garment Measurements:
 BODICE - 
  shoulders: 15"/38cm
  sleeves: 24"/61cm
  bodice length: 17"/43cm
  bust: 34"/86.25cm 
  waist: 24"/61cm
 SKIRT - 
  waist: 24"/61cm (you can move the top eye to gain 1/2", but that's it)
  hips (9" below waist): 42"/106.65cm
  length: 42"/ 106.5cm at front, 45.5"/115.5cm at back

The dress is a near-perfect fit on Delphine, who measures b: 33.5", w: 23". Remember, though, she has no give at all. So, if your natural waist is 25" or even possibly 26", this may work for you, depending on how fond you are of breathing. My 26.5-27" waist would NOT fit, even corseted, and I am devastated. Also, Delphine is 6'2" tall, so the dress will likely be longer on you! It is a floor-length skirt.

Go to summer flowy pants! Plus size friendly!
I'm OBSESSED! I'm 5'5 195lbs and got a XL in these. I will be purchasing more! Very plus size friendly! So comfortable, the quality is great, they breathe well and the stretchiness of the band is amazing.

Wide leg snatched waist band
Size: X-Large, Color: Brown Black
These pants are perfect. The material is thin but not see through. They are breathable and are truly wide leg and made well for us tall girlies. I'm 5"8 and I usually wear 16/18 pants. I have a short torso, all legs and these pants fit me perfectly. The waist band is a nice snatch for a body suit top. I'm happy.

Just order them!
Size: X-Large, Color: Brown Black
Absolutely dig these loose, lightweight, flowy cheetah print palazzo pants! I got the XL in brown/black and can't wait to wear them. They are true to size (I typically wear a 16 and have ample hips). Will pair with a more fitted tee, platform sandals a d a jean jacket. So cute and comfy!

Awesome pants.
Size: X-Large, Color: Brown Black
LOVE these pants and have gotten so many compliments. Cool and comfortable. Very wide leg - be prepared for snarky comments but WHO CARES? I say let the haters hate because clearly they are jealous of your amazing pants. The pants are very cute with a denim button down or an oversized tee and some sneakers. I am 5'9" and the pants are plenty long. Not too long to drag on the floor but right to the sole of my sneakers.
