ALL THE DETAILS

This gown is made-to-order; choose the size that you currently wear in contemporary sizing and choose the fabric combination from the fabric choices. Within 3-5 business days of receiving your order, I will send you a measurement worksheet listing the measurements required for a perfect fit. 

The ball gown features:

  • two pieces: a bodice and skirt
  • fully interlined and boned bodice
  • off the shoulder neckline
  • ribbon through the lace at the neck of the dress
  • a removable collar (berthe) that is decorated bobbinet, lace, and flowers
  • a "v" at front center waist
  • a back closure that laces up through hand sewn eyelets
  • short, puffed sleeves of bobbinet under oversleeves of the fashion fabric
  • a pleated skirt with a width of 165" or more (choose from the skirt styles in the drop down choices)
  • a hem facing of cotton
  • two roomy pockets, hidden in the side seams of the skirt

The price shown is for the basic dress and does NOT include: piping at the neckline, armsyces, or waistband or a train on the skirt.  If you desire any of these added to your dress, please choose these add-ons and accessories in the Little Women Collection and add them to your cart when purchasing the dress.

Measure your bust and waist and choose your size based on the pictured sizing guidelines. For the most accurate fit, please take the measurements while wearing your corset. The dress will be hemmed to accommodate hoops and sit about 2" off the floor, based on the measurements you send after you order.

Choose your fabric; you can see the options below. Please note that the only available options are fabrics that are suitable for Amy's Ball Gown!  If you prefer a different fabric choice, please click on the dress name to be taken to that listing so you can order that dress and fabric.

Little Women Collection Dress Fabrics 

Current fabric choices are shown with inspiration photos to help you visualize the dress in that fabric.  These inspiration photos are either photos of extant dresses or period fashion plates.  They serve ONLY as inspiration and do NOT depict exactly how your dress will be made.  Once you order, I will contact you to discuss measurements and confirm your exact design details.
----------------------------------------------------
HOW TO MEASURE YOURSELF

Please measure yourself while wearing the corset and other undergarments you plan to wear with the gown.  Remember that measurements such as your bust and waist should be 1-1.5" inches smaller than the dress measurements, to allow for ease of movement.

Refer to the measurement graphic in the listing and this video tutorial if you need assistance in understanding and taking your measurements. If you still have additional questions, please feel free to email me.

To achieve the correct historical silhouette, this gown is pictured over a corset, elliptical crinoline, and petticoats, but no corset, crinoline, or petticoats are included with this listing. This dress is made to fit over a historical corset and will not fit correctly over modern undergarments. However, if you would like your commissioned dress to fit over modern undergarments, please send an email, and I will be happy to oblige!

----------------------------------------------------
CARE INSTRUCTIONS

Care instructions will be included with your order, but if you choose a silk or wool fabric, it will be dry clean only.  Most dresses made with cotton, linen, or polyester fabrics can be washed.

All fabrics are preshrunk, usually by prewashing.  Seller is not responsible for any allergic reactions to the detergent used in prewashing.

Bold Colors, Great Quality, and an Amazing Price - Perfect Everyday Sheets
Color: Black, Size: Full
The Amazon Basics lightweight bed sheets have been such a great buy for my boys’ bedrooms. They come in a wide variety of colors, which made it easy to match each room’s style — and the colors stay bold and vibrant even after multiple washes, which honestly surprised me. The quality is excellent for the price. The fabric stays soft, doesn’t pill, and holds up well to frequent washing (a must in kids’ rooms!). Each set includes a fitted sheet, flat sheet, and two pillow shams, which makes the value even better — most sets at this price point don’t include that many pieces. Overall, these sheets are affordable, durable, colorful, and comfortable. I loved them enough to buy them in multiple colors, and they’ve held up beautifully. A fantastic budget-friendly choice for any household.

Soft and Comfortable Sheets for Everyday Use
Color: Frosted Lavender, Size: Twin, Color: Frosted Lavender, Size: Twin
I really like these sheets. They are soft, lightweight, and fit my twin mattress perfectly. The lavender color looks beautiful in person and they feel comfortable to sleep on. After washing, they still looked nice and didn’t wrinkle much. Great quality for the price!

Bed Sheets
Color: Bright White Striped, Size: Queen
I’m really happy with these bed sheets. They feel soft and comfortable against the skin, and the crisp white color gives the bed a clean, fresh look. The fabric is lightweight but still feels durable and well made. They fit the mattress nicely and stay in place throughout the night. After washing, they came out looking great with no noticeable shrinking or loss of softness.

Great sheet set
Color: Blush Pink, Size: Full
Super soft right out of the package. Thin material but should be perfect for cool nights. Blush pink is the perfect shade of pink. Love this set. Highly recommended especially at this price point.
