Not too bad: my feedback

NOTE: Does not come with bonnet. Does not include the bonnet. Only includes sash for around the waist, skirt and cape. The elaborate styling and accessories may draw unwanted attention or make the wearer feel self-conscious.

Pros
  • Made from high-quality materials, this dress is durable and sturdy, able to withstand the rigors of reenactments and faires
Cons
  • The elaborate styling and accessories may draw unwanted attention or make the wearer feel self-conscious

The skirt is really long!

I like it but the skirt is huge! I’m having it altered, which will probably cost more than the outfit itself! Finding appropriate footwear to match the outfit may be difficult.

Pros
  • Costumes
Cons
  • Finding appropriate footwear to match the outfit may be difficult

More uses than civil war

This also works for Dickens or Jane Austin, or even Laura Ingalls/teacher. Very happy with the quality for the price. The skirt will fit everyone and can be made shorter by using hoop skirts.

Pros
  • The attention to detail in the design of the Civil War Reenactment Dickens Faire Victorian 3 Piece Cape Sash Dress is second to none, making it a truly authentic costume
Cons
  • The costume may feel too formal or dressy for more casual reenactment events

Lots of flexibility in sizing.

This is great outfit. I am 5'1" and it was quite long. It has drawstring waist and has a lot of fabric. Definitely need hoop under for skirt fullness.if you are going to have plenty of room. I'm happy with it.

Pros
  • Clothing, Shoes & Jewelry
Cons
  • The cost of purchasing the entire outfit could be prohibitively expensive for some

This outfit is the first one like it I bought.

I wear my long dresses everyday. I love dressing like a lady. It's beautiful and comfortable. The price is right. I get compliments everywhere I go!

Pros
  • The dress can be accessorized with jewelry and other Victorian-era props to complete the look and add to the authenticity
Cons
  • The elaborate styling may require more time and effort to get ready, cutting into valuable reenactment time

Perfect for Dickens Fair!

This is exactly what was looking for in a Dickens Christmas fair costume. It is simple and comfortable. The fabric material is smooth and appears to be of good quality. The skirt is voluminous but there is a drawstring waistband so it should fit everyone. The skirt was too long for me as I am only 5 feet tall, but I was able to tuck the excess length from the waist and stuff it into my petticoat underneath, which has almost a control top so it holds the excess fabric well. I recommend wearing…

Pros
  • Women
Cons
  • The period-specific style may not appeal to all fashion tastes and preferences

I bought this dress 2 weekends ago. I am .

I bought this dress 2 weekends ago. I am in a play this weekend and the dress I had did not fit. This dress fits perfectly. The draw string allows me the flexibility to adjust it any way I need to. I am short and with the drawstring and my hoop skirt, I do not have to hem it.

Pros
  • Costumes & Cosplay Apparel
Cons
  • The outfit may not be practical for everyday wear or other occasions outside of reenactment events

don't fall for it.

I should have known better. But there were so good reviews so I gave it a chance. There is no way this will fit over a hoop skirt. It barely reaches the floor held against my body. The fabric is so cheap and plastic and unlined. It feels like a Walmart costume. Don't waste your money. I won't even be able to use this. It's a loss.

Pros
  • The cape and sash add an extra layer of style and sophistication, making this dress stand out from other Victorian-era costumes
Cons
  • The outfit may be impractical for outdoor events in inclement weather

Other wise looked good for old fashioned Christmas caroling

Ordered a medium for my size 8 daughter. I can wear it- I'm a size 20. Has drawstring waist so able to rig it to fit. Other wise looked good for old fashioned Christmas caroling!

Pros
  • The high-quality construction of the dress means that it will last for years, providing excellent value for money
Cons
  • The costume may feel too restrictive and prevent the wearer from fully interacting with their surroundings

Quality for a great price and it fits!

This was everything I was hoping for and more for my Christmas party! I won first place because my costume did not look like a costume at all, as I was informed when I won! I was very comfortable and I found the fabric soft, wrinkle free, with finer detail than I imagined with the lace and black velvet trimming. I had also purchased a black full 3 hoop Petticoat that gave me a fullness that I wanted. I had also completed my outfit with a black adult bonnet. I also loved the very long and large…

Pros
  • The classic Victorian style of the dress makes it perfect for any occasion, from reenactments to theme parties
Cons
  • The dress may not fit properly or be comfortable for individuals with certain body types or sizes

Super awesome quality!

Fit perfectly and was super comfortable! The fabric was an amazing texture and the cape was beautiful! So happy with my purchase!

Pros
  • The dress is available in a range of sizes to ensure the perfect fit for any body type or shape
Cons
  • The intricate detailing and design may be too difficult for someone to put on or take off without assistance
