Scarlett O'Hara's

Black Bustled Velvet Mourning Gown


"Velvet Mourning gown for Dee"

    

We will be loading some blurred images of the recently completed
velvet mourning gown. We are sorry, but due to the continuing theft and
poor quality knock offs of our work, we will no longer be showing such detailed pictures
of our seamstress's work. She has been studying these gowns and how they are constructed
for over 40 years. If you order a replica of this gown many detailed images of the
recent gown will be provide to you. Thank you: Gwtw4eveR

   


This two piece dress is constructed of black velvet. Bodice is flat lined, boned and lined and closes with 32 hooks in a concealed placket with another 8 used to fasten it to skirt.

    

 

The distinctive feature of this costume is the trapunto quilted collar, shoulder cape and oversized sleeve cuffs.

     

 

The top three images are of Vivien wearing the original brooch from the film. Although we have a custom
made replica of the mourning brooch we sadly cannot use it in the example pictures without blurring them due to the
continuing theft and poor copies of our work that are being produced by other less skilled seamstresses. The fourth picture is a large brooch that can be obtained for this gown.

Oversized cameo brooch needed to decorate neckline is not included.

Skirt is 1870's styled with bustled back and long train, mounted on a wide grosgrain waistband. A bustle pad is required to support the bustled skirt back.
