1791's lady Women's Victorian Rococo Dress Inspiration Maiden Costume

I bought this for an 18th-century cosplay project I'm doing. This dress is absolutely STUNNING in real life and even prettier than in the photos! The fabric is good quality, with the white/blue flower print being cotton, and the navy blue center fabric is a lightweight satin with a printed paisley design. The colors are gorgeous, and the fit is wonderful too! My bust is a 32D and I'm wearing this with a 22-inch corset. When I tried everything on, it all looked amazing together and fit perfectly. With my body shape, it's extremely rare to find a well-fitting garment off the rack that doesn't require alterations, but I'm happy to say this dress is a huge win when it comes to the fit and won't require any tailoring! Note: The dress requires a petticoat with pannier-style hoops to create the skirt shape in the photos. Without it, the skirt will drag on the ground and look flat. But panniers can be purchased here on Amazon for around 20-30 dollars. It's best to get one with a ruffled petticoat over the hoops to create a smoother, softer look without any lumpy hoops showing through. I bought the "FINGERINSPIRE 59.8inch Victorian Hoop Skirt Petticoat Double Ruffle Petticoat for Theater Rococo Style" from here and it fits perfectly under this dress and boosts the skirt to about 1 inch from the floor. Any standard-sized pannier hoop petticoat should work with this. Amazon has plenty of brands of them. On a final note, I'm SO happy with this dress, I ordered another variation of it from this same company but in the lighter blue flower print. They're both beautiful, but out of the two, this white/navy blue version is my favorite! That navy blue gives it certain regal elegance that feels like something Marie Antoinette would have worn. If you have a shapely body type, this style is flattering because it's made to fit a feminine shape more than a super-skinny body type. For reference: I'm 5'2 in height, and I wear an American dress size 4 to 6. So, I'm nowhere near plus-sized, but I'm not exactly 'skinny' either, especially in the bust, hips, and rear end areas...If this sounds anything like your body type, this dress will look AMAZING on you!

If I could give this more than 5 stars, I absolutely would! I purchased this for a Bridgerton-themed birthday party my friend was hosting, and let me tell you—I was an absolute HIT! From the moment I slipped it on, I felt like I had stepped straight out of Regency-era elegance. The fabric was of exceptional quality—thick, sturdy, and luxurious. The stitching was flawless, showing the care and craftsmanship that went into creating this piece. The color couldn’t have been more perfect for my skin tone—it complemented me beautifully, and I truly felt radiant. To achieve the ideal silhouette, I paired it with a hoop ring underneath, and it gave the dress that perfect, dramatic shape. It fit me like a glove, as if it had been custom-made just for me. Honestly, I don’t think I’ve ever felt prettier or more confident in an outfit. It was a showstopper in every sense of the word! If you’re considering this for your next themed event or any special occasion, don’t hesitate. I couldn’t be happier with my purchase—it exceeded every expectation!

This is a good quality dress. Ordered it for Constitution Day at school. It's lovely in person. I'm 5'4" and ordered the medium. I also ordered a hoop slip to make the dress poof out more, otherwise it would be too flat and too long.

Costume is gorgeous, however, if you are very busy, be aware that the fabric has no stretch or give. I ordered the largest size and I was still pancaked in in the bust area. Ended up with alterations and it's so beautiful and a dream to wear! The material isn't super thick, and you will need a crinoline or petticoat underneath as it's a but see-through. It's not at all uncomfortable, about the same as a structured Halloween costume. I only took a star off for the sizing due to being restricted for the busty ladies. Perhaps I corset would have helped.

So many compliments on this dress! We had a Boston Tea Party curriculum day for our first grade classes. All the kids and teachers dressed up from that era. The dress fit well. I added a crinoline under it to proof it out just ever so slightly. It was comfortable, lightweight, but yet very utilitarian. Totally loved and will wear again next year!

Absolutely gorgeous! Great attention to detail. The top layer is separate from the skirt underneath, which is unusual and more authentic. It has a zipper on the side along the torso, which helps it fit better. The only thing that disappointed me was at the material feels pretty artificial. It looks great, but it’s definitely not cotton or anything they would have used in that time period. But it will probably hold up better. Overall great value for money. I almost feel guilty. Whoever made it probably didn’t get paid a lot. I got an extra large and I will have to take in the bust a little bit to make it truly fitted, but it looks OK. I am 5’3” so it’s a little long, but with the pettycoats, it shouldn’t be an issue. My measurements for Reference: 36DD Top of shoulder to top of hip 20in. Waist 39 in. Hip 48.5 in. Arm 24 in (tip of finger to armpit) Shoulder width: 19 in. Shoulder circumference: 45.3 in.

It wasn't what I was looking for, but I'm sure the picture may help with sizing. I am 6ft 2in. The dress had good length and didn't fit too badly. The dress quality was better than most costumes but not thick enough to wear as an outside dress.

Loved the dress for our Faces of History day at school! My 9 year old was able to wear the Medium and it fit her almost perfectly. We ordered a split hoop skirt to match the time and added a few embellishments à la Marie Antoinette. The material is polyester, so it's not super thick but we added a straight slip as a base layer to help with any sheerness. The color was a pretty light and dark blue with stark white like the photo as advertised. It is stretchy and overall, we felt it was great quality for the price.

Es de buen material, un poco delgado .

Left a comment for a medium size. Was really disappointed with this. It is unwearable.

Realmente lindo

Very nice quality. Love the detail.

I ordered a medium, followed the size chart and everything. When it arrives I find a small. Need the dress for an event and had no time to wait for another dress to arrive. If I had the right size it would be perfect. Material is pretty good, it's gorgeous. Luckily I have enough know-how to hopefully make it work for the event. Sad I won't be able to reuse it after the event because it's the wrong size.
