These lovely gowns are based on real pictures of actual historical garments. Renaissance ladies on the continent and elsewhere wore long gowns with the skirts attached - they are reproduced here for you with all the care and quality that you expect and deserve. All gowns shown here feature a deeply gathered skirt set into bodice waistline. Front grommet closure, square neckline with double front boning (vertical and diagonal) for ladies with 'real figures'. Sleeves NOT included.
