Multi-period Gown

Costume ~ MG121

Type ~ Theatrical

Description ~ Lady’s Olive Green Taffeta Gown

Period ~ Made for Jessica in The Merchant of Venice, but could be used for other periods, as it is a fairly generic shape (theatrically)

The gown is trimmed with a grosgrain lattice-woven braid to accentuate the shaping. The Lace at the neck and cuffs is a cotton one - which adds a lovely old feel to the garment.

Photos - The front view was taken without flash - the back view was taken with flash, and highlights the satiny texture of the gown.

Bust ~ Up to 38
Waist ~ 30"
Height ~ flexible - but made for 5'6"
Price ~ £50
Availability ~ One only
