Renaissance Queen's Gown

Renaissance Queens Gown
Shown here is Black Velvet Renaissance Queens Gown with Silver brocade.  Beadwork is done in silver and faux pearls, two rows of beads on the underskirt, undersleeves, bodice, turn back sleeves, and all around the overskirt.  The works! 
Gown as shown: $1525.  Gown without the beadwork: $825

This style was worn by the French, Scottish, and Spanish as well as English Courts.  The addition of rows of pearls and beads, and trim make this a truly magnificent gown that will take their breath away! 
Prices start at about $700 click here for a pricing chart.

These are great for Renaissance Festivals, or for your Renaissance Wedding Gown. I am sorry, but white/ivory velvet in not available.  Several brocades are available in white, ivory and even silver!  There is also a new white chinese silk with cherry blossoms that would be lovely for a truly formal gown.

Include a set of your measurements with your order form.  When I receive your order, a written confirmation will be sent as confirmation.

    Want a fabric not listed?  You may provide your own satin, brocade or silk fabric!
    Providing your own fabric increases the overall cost of the gown, but is a great way to have a completely unique dress!
    How much is needed?
    BODICE, UPPER SLEEVE AND OVERSKIRT- 10 yards for no train, 14 yards for with train.
    UNDERSKIRT: 2 yards for front only, or 6 for full skirt.
    TURNBACK SLEEVES: 3 yards Undersleeves: 1/2 yard
    RIBBON TRIM (optional): for each row: 2 yards for neckline, 10 yards for sleeves, 2 yards for front of underskirt, 15 for overskirt, one for headdress. Ribbon trim must be flat, and no wider than 1/2 inch.

    Gowns include a bridal hoop skirt for fullness, and a cotton hip length chemise (blouse) to wear underneath. The Gown bodices are fully double lined and boned, and do not require a corset underneath. The bodice will slim your waist by an inch or two, and will still fit if you slim down a bit after ordering (as they lace down the back).  If you wish to wear an under corset, I recommend the Century Style Corset in brocade.  Gowns take about 2-3 months to complete from the time I receive the paid order. Rush orders may be available, I recommend ordering 4 months before your event.
     

I do not at this time offer partlets, or ruffs, sorry.
If you have these things, you may of course wear them with the gown for an even fancier look!
