"Darling Plaid" - Pick color option. Editorial Dress, Couture Gown, Special Occasion Dress
Our Darling Plaid vintage inspired gown is a sophisticated gown made with the most gorgeous high end plaid fabric. This fabric is not heavyweight but is not thin. This fabric is soft and comfortable to wear. Rather you choose black or red - this sweet dress is truly a showstopper and perfect for photo sessions or a special event. We have added a sweet applique shown however it can be made without as well. We have both black and gold applique options. Appliques and capes are an additional fee.
We have added a very flexible back which features shoulder ties which add to the ease of size adjustment and a full elastic back- which lends to her ease of size adjustment as well. Typically with our elastic back you can add an additional 1-3 inches of room into this dress.
Her skirting features yards upon yards of bridal soft tulle in red and we have created a primary rainbow color cascading effect. Each layer is trimmed in horsehair braid trim. We have added a built in petticoat for added pouf. The skirting is fully lined so not itchy feeling against the skin.
This design comes with a wider horse hair braid trim for added volume.
Please note: the larger you go up in size-the less compact the ruffles are/LESS volume the skirt will appear to have. But we will add crinoline.
All skirts will have a small layer of crinoline petticoat built in- however if you prefer no crinoline or lining added please note at checkout-this will NOT change the price.
This dress option can be made in a variety of colors and beading is an option. Please note: beading design may vary.
