Be your favorite gothic literary heroine in this perfectly tailored, high-quality, historically accurate mid-Victorian day dress. This dress is perfect for attending an event, reenacting history, acting in theatre, or for admirers of Victorian mourning rituals and gothic literature. It is probably what Jo March wore when mourning Beth's death.

Mourning dresses were made in all black with minimal trimmings. This dress is based on extant mourning dresses that can be found here.

As a modeling sample, this mourning dress was worn for photography.  It is the only mourning dress in this size, fabric, and design and is available at a reduced price.  It can ship to you in 3-5 business days. Shipping within the U.S. is FREE for all orders over $50.

This ensemble can also be commissioned in the size and fabric of your choice. Commission pricing for a dress just like this starts at $1.309, due to the silk fabric and add-ons, but more economical options are available.

----------------------------------------------------

ALL THE DETAILS

This mourning dress is a women's size 6 (small) and is ideal for heights of about 5'2" to 5'4".  It includes a bodice and skirt, as well as a white collar (which is basted in) and a dust ruffle that buttons into the hem.

This dress is made in the Meg's Afternoon Gown design out of a black 100% silk crepe and includes:

  • a "V" shape bodice, which visually broadens the shoulders and narrows the waist
  • a button front closure
  • fully lined and fitted, boned bodice
  • black velvet trim on the bodice and sleeves (a $75 add-on)
  • matching piping on the bodice (a $75 add-on)
  • a white (100% cotton voile) collar trimmed with cotton lace (a $25 add-on)
  • long, fitted sleeves trimmed ending in a cuff that closes with hook and eye
  • a fully pleated skirt with a width of about 170" and made to fit an elliptical hoop (a $100 add-on)
  • hem facing
  • a ruffle around the bottom half of the skirt (a $150 add-on)
  • a dust ruffle (50/50 cotton/poly broadcloth) that buttons into the hem (a $125 add-on)

The dress measurements are as follows:

  • Bust: 36"
  • Waist: 28.5"
  • Back neck to hem length: 52" (plus a 6" train on the back)

If you would like additional measurements, please contact us and we will be happy to provide them! 

To achieve the correct historical silhouette, the dress is pictured over a corset, petticoat, and elliptical hoop, but no corset, petticoats, or hoops are included with this listing.

**PLEASE NOTE: All samples are boned with heavy duty zip ties, rather than synthetic whalebone, to help keep costs low.  I find these are just as quality as synthetic whalebone and bone all of my personal historical garments with heavy duty zip ties, but I wanted to disclose this information before you purchase the garment.

----------------------------------------------------

HOW TO MEASURE YOURSELF

Please measure yourself while wearing the corset and other undergarments you plan to wear with the ensemble.  Remember that measurements such as your bust and waist should be smaller than the dress measurements by an inch or more, to allow for ease of movement.

Refer to the measurement graphic in the listing and the video tutorial if you need assistance in understanding and taking your measurements. If you still have additional questions, please feel free to message me. If you would like it altered to fit your measurements, please message me for alteration pricing, as that will be an additional cost.

----------------------------------------------------

Love it BUT it MAY cause dry mouth?
Size: Pack of 1, 4 Ounce, Set name: B. Probiotic - Peppermint
I love the mild minty flavor and the fact it is probiotic. I have been using Boka flouride free Nana-Hydroxyapatite since June 2025. At that time, my front teeth had begun to appear somewhat translucent. When I asked my dentist about it I was told it was due to my age (52) and losing minerals & enamel in/on my teeth. After some research, I discovered nano-hydroxyapatite and figured, ‘why not’? My teeth have always been sensitive and my gums prone to bleeding. I have always used Sensodyne and was unsure of changing but I have found my teeth ate less sensitive now. I just had my 6 month check up & my gums hardly bled & my front teeth are far more ‘solid’ looking! The hygienist complimented me on my improvement since the last check up. All I’ve done differently is the toothpaste! I am not certain if the toothpaste is the reason (due to lack of fluoride) for my new symptom of dry mouth but I haven’t begun any new Rx’s. I am thinking it is the toothpaste because the products I found to aid with dry mouth all contain fluoride. Just a heads up.

Clean, unharmful ingredients.
Size: Pack of 1, 4 Ounce, Set name: A. Probiotic - Citrus Mint
Good stuff. I had somekind of an allergic reaction to a chemical in it, as I do most toothpaste though. Whatever it is, strips the lining of the inside of my mouth. It wasn't as bad as some of the other's that I have used though. I need to find out what it is in the toothpastes that I use that does this, so I can stay away from it. Otherwise, I liked the taste and how good it cleaned my teeth.

Fresh Taste and Super Clean Feeling
Size: Pack of 1, 4 Ounce, Set name: A. Probiotic - Citrus Mint, Size: Pack of 1, 4 Ounce, Set name: A. Probiotic - Citrus Mint
I’ve been using this toothpaste for a while now and just ordered my second tube. The citrus mint flavor is really — fresh but not overpowering. I also love that it’s safe for kids, so the whole family can use it. The fine particles leave my teeth feeling super clean and smooth, almost “squeaky clean” after brushing. It keeps my mouth feeling fresh for a long time and I’ve noticed much less plaque buildup throughout the day. Definitely one of the best fluoride-free toothpastes I’ve tried so far.

Love, love, love!
Size: Pack of 1, 4 Ounce, Set name: A. Probiotic - Citrus Mint
I love this toothpaste! It has done an amazing job removing plaque. It has helped my sensitivity immediately and I am able to handle cold water or drinks again without any pain. I also love that this is a prebiotic toothpaste.

Quality toothpaste with ingredients you can trust
Size: Pack of 1, 4 Ounce, Set name: B. Probiotic - Peppermint, Size: Pack of 1, 4 Ounce, Set name: B. Probiotic - Peppermint
Good toothpaste. It's a nice light scent/flavor. It's pleasant. My teeth feel fresh after using it. I'm excited to see the changes. I'll post a picture of my before and then I'll update in a few months of my after. I'm so grateful this is a natural product that focuses on replenishing rather than just scratching. I still wish it cost less, I mean 14 bucks for one toothpaste seems like a lot, but it's better than using toothpaste that's laced with poison so whatever. I hope one day they come down on their price. I like that the ingredients are quality.
