Details Please sir, may I have some more? You'll be wanting more once you see how authentically late 19th century this Dickens' era costume is. Whether you need a convincing Oliver Twist dress or a genuine colonial period dress, this one will do the trick. It has a wide range of possibilities, whether you have a part in an early colonial American play, or a part as a middle class housewife in 1850's Britain, this costume will let you bring authenticity and believability to your performance. Or, perhaps you just feel like sporting the Pilgrim or Plymouth Rock or Puritan look for Halloween this year. People might ask you if you're performing a historical re-enactment, so be prepared for some dazzled looks and impressed expressions. This beautiful floor length burgundy velvet colonial gown comes with a separate blouse, and a matching capelet that ties around the neck, and billows down over the shoulders with an elegant, historically reminiscent drape. The panne burgundy Charles Dickens style costume also comes with a faux fur belt, which can be tied at the waist or around the neck, depending upon the era and style that you are going for. For extra authenticity, remember to check out the accessories section for a colonial or Gibson girl wig, which will save you the trouble of trying to remember how they did their hair back then. The muffs and the bonnet are not included.
