This custom ordered ensemble was an English style gown from the Revolutionary War period in burgundy velvet, richly brocaded burgundy and gold petticoat skirt and pocket hoops, all appropriate to the 1770-1780's and modelled after preserved historic garments.  The skirts can be worn up as shown, or down with an even hem.  Thank you for the official picture Liisa!!

This costume ensemble hailed from the 18th century style of Sacque back gowns.  The delicately sensous texture of the 100% silk satin skirt and sleeve ruffles was balanced by the heavy cranberry velvet richly embroidered overall with red and white satin threads.  The bodice of the gown closed at the side front with a row of hooks and eyes hidden by the cream colored ruching.  The bodice back had a series of ties on the inside to moderately adjust the firmness of the unboned but heavily interfaced bodice through the waist. This ensemble included pocket hoops, sacque back gown in embroidered velvet, 100% silk petticoat skirt with ruffle at the hem, and a soft 100% cotton petticoat.  Although we used a period correct pattern for a robe a la francaise, please check with your local re-enactment group to see if this complies with their clothing regulations before purchasing as a custom order.
