This is an EXAMPLE of a French style colonial gown known as a robe a`la Francaise, popular in the 1750's through the 1770's also called a sack-back gown. Please do not hit the "add to cart button" because there is no dress in this listing-you need to contact me and request a custom order first. The gown has a cotton lining with boned lacing tapes in the back for some adjustment to the back. The front has a stomacher that is pinned over the underlining tabs and inserted beneath the side robings.
Double scalloped flounces adorn the sleeves as well as ruffle on stomacher and robings. The dress has the pleated cape built into the back design with side pleats and side slit openings for pockets.
The separate petticoat is made to match fashion fabric and is decorated on the front. Stomacher is boned and decorated. Machine and hand-stitched. Dry clean only. I can make this in a fabric of your choice with different decorations, but the price will vary according to the type of fabric-whether real or faux silk - and amount of trimming. Contact me for details.

Wendy/Verdanta is fantastic! I think this is the fifth gown I have ordered. They are all wonderfully made, and more lovely than the photos. You won't be disappointed with any purchase and they always arrive quickly. Thank you so much!

Have always been a fan of Miss Wendy's work (majority of my period clothings are made by her) and this jacket is yet another reason why I'm a devoted customer. I love the rich color and as always, the construction is superb. Plus, have grown to appreciate anything with a stomacher since that gives some flexibility with my fluctuating weight. Seriously can't wait to don this for my next event!
