The "Red Dress" is also known as Ashley's Birthday Party dress ~ The Shame Gown and the Garnet Velvet dress. Photographing this dress and capturing the true color of the velvet  is difficult.  The velvet can look black, purple, and, of course, red as it appeared in the movie "Gone With the Wind". The dress actually is a deep rich BURGUNDY velvet. There are many pictures of this gown in several stages and there are a few different gowns in this group of pictures. We took several photographs of one of the gowns before we added all the ostrich feathers and plumes.  This will give you a chance to see all the intricate detailing on the dress before being obscured by the feathers. There are 2 different variations of bustled trains for the gown.  Also there are two different variations of glass or crystal drops that can be used on the bodice front. Additionally there is a choice of Swarovski Austrian crystal faceted stones or acrylic faceted stones either set in gold halo rims which are scattered all over the dress and trains. Once again, most of these images were color altered to show detailing.
