One-of-a-Kind Custom Elizabethan Court Gown – Former Bristol Queen’s Court Cast Piece

​This museum-quality ensemble was handcrafted for the role of Mary Cavendish, Lady Talbot (Group of St. George) for the Queen’s Court at the Bristol Renaissance Faire. Designed for the rigors of full-time performance, it offers the authentic weight, "heft," and silhouette of true 16th-century nobility.

​Fabric: Constructed from 5 yards of premium forest green cotton velveteen, lined in coordinating green poly-silk for comfort and durability.

​The Bodice: Features a historically accurate English square-cut silhouette. It is lavishly embellished with hand-sewn gold metallic couching in a "T" pattern, accented by emerald Swarovski crystals set in gold filigree medallions. Double-tabbed detailing at the hem and shoulders is finished with hand-applied metallic gold cording.

​The Sleeves: A masterwork of 44 total pieces (22 per sleeve), each individually detailed with metallic gold cording and authentic freshwater pearls at every junction.

​The Skirt: A full, heavy-weight cartridge-pleated overskirt. The front opening features hand-sewn gold couching in an intricate diamond lattice pattern.

​The Forepart: Gold forepart with a velvet-accented center and hem, further embellished with matching filigree, pearls, and Swarovski crystals.

​Sizing & Fit

​Base Size: Small (Approx. 32" Bust / 25" Waist).

​Adjustability: The bodice features corset-style lacing in the back. It can comfortably accommodate an additional 2–3" in the bust and waist depending on your preferred lacing gap or the addition of a modesty placket.

​Condition & Seller’s Notes

​Provenance: Worn for one full-time season as official cast.

​Condition: Sold "as-is." Due to the authentic nature of the materials and hand-embroidery, spot cleaning is recommended. Please note "faire dust" and wear along the hem of the forepart and the interior hem of the overskirt, consistent with professional use on the grounds (see photos).

​Included: Bodice, Sleeves, Overskirt, and Forepart.

​Not Included: Chemise, ruff, farthingale, corset, bumroll, and mini-portrait.

​Note: Matching hat sold separately.

Created in a cat-friendly home.

​Store Policy: Due to the custom, one-of-a-kind nature of this artisan piece, it is excluded from all promotional coupon codes. Final sale; no returns or refunds.

Wouldn’t recommend these sandals.
I was really excited to try the Steve Madden Women's Wafer Heeled Sandals, but unfortunately, I’m disappointed with the quality. The sandals look great in photos, but when I received them, I noticed that the materials felt cheap and not as durable as I expected from a brand like Steve Madden. The straps are stiff, and they rubbed against my skin, causing discomfort after only a short amount of time. The fit also wasn’t great — they felt a bit tight, especially around the toes, which made them hard to wear for longer periods. While the heel height is cute, the overall construction doesn’t seem to provide enough support, which made walking in them less comfortable than I anticipated. For the price, I expected better quality and comfort. Unfortunately, I wouldn’t recommend these sandals.

Perfect black patent leather heel
Size: 6.5, Color: Black Patent
Definitely go up an entire size in these. I used to work at Steve Madden and can tell you with 100% confidence if you're ever buying one of their heels with a pointier toe, you need to go up an entire size or your foot is going to suffer. These are a perfect "high" stiletto, they're definitely not low and I wouldn't say they're a breeze to walk in unless you're used to heels. I will vouch for how comfortable they are though given the height and the shape - they're as comfortable as a heel like this could be for sure! If you have skinnier ankles, definitely recommend punching an extra hole in the strap.

toe strap is tewww tight
Size: 8, Color: Black
I love the look of these heels, they’re super classy, elegant, simple, and most importantly I chose these because of the small platform at the base of the heel for a less painful experience. The onlyyyyyy issue I have is that the toe strap is so close to the front and tight (as you can see)!! I got the correct size but wish I didn’t have to stretch them out (which is almost impossible because that leather is stiff). The shoe is not very bendable but I personally like it because the shoe is sturdy.

Poor Quality for the Cost !!! Dissatisfied
Disappointed Durability. I love these heels they are very comfortable looks good with just about any color outfit . However, my heart ripped in pieces after 3 months with limited wear they began to lift and fall apart . I’m very dissatisfied with the cost & poor quality slippers I received. I wish I could actually returned it but couldn’t due to the 30 days return policy.
