HISTORICAL NOTE; Girls dresses DID NOT button or have zippers they were laced up the back or front ..often times the top pinned to the bottom ..our dresses zip for ease of wearing ...our style is also the English style of Colonial dresses..the French colonial was quite different..
a fun project to do with your girls is to check out the historical sites to see the many undergarments (underpinnings) they wore then.


At this time Please allow 3 to 8 weeks for this to be made plus shipping time..I ship Priority mail with tracking and insurance against damage.. insurance does not cover someone stealing from your mailbox...or porch ..I am happy to add signature confirmation at your request free on orders over 60.00 and 2.95 for under,60.00 .. ..but someone does need to be home to sign for the package ..the Postal worker must hand to someone over 18 in the house and have you sign for it...Insurance only covers loss of packages that the USPS tracking states has never arrived..and the ones they damage in shipping (both will have to fill out paperwork..and they allow a certain amount of time.. but it does protect us ) .
Please note if no measurements are sent a standard size will be made.it is recommended you allow me to help you choose a size.
