Ready To Wear Dresses

Our ready-made dresses are available and ready to be shipped when you order.

Please Note: I have been listing these dresses on Ebay, so dress availability is not guaranteed. However, if you wish to purchase the dress and there are no bids on Ebay I will end the auction immediately and sell the dress to you.

Most of our pre-made dresses are hemmed at a length of 47", if shortening is needed please let us know when you place the order and we will hem it free of charge.

 

Gathered Visiting Gown

$450 + free shipping

Order #PM032

Measurements are as follows:

Bust- 40"
Waist-32"
Skirt Length-47"
Sweep-150"

Shown over a 140" hoop (hoop not included)

This is a two-piece civil war dress and it is completely period correct. This is, of course, brand new and has never been worn
The bodice and the skirt are made from the same tan striped cotton fabric. The bodice is buttoned up the front and it has a set of matching undersleeves. 
The skirt has a large hook & eye in the back for a secure closure and features twenty-two gathered sections at the bottom that create this unusual look. 
The dress is accented with chocolate brown satin ribbon and was inspired by a Civil War era fashion plate.
The undersleeves have a button at each wrist and tie at the top (I will put elastic in if requested). Please Note: the undersleeves look a bit limp in the pictures, but they will look fine when you are wearing them.



*Only one of each dress is available*

    TO ORDER: Dresses will be sold on a first come, first serve basis. Please E-mail us with any questions you may have. You will receive conformation within one business day. The West Virginian Sutler will remove any unavailable dresses as soon as possible, but due to human error dress availability is not guaranteed.
