The
Portrait Gown
~ The dress is shown over a 191 inch hoop slip. This
dress is a very deep blue velvet. The pictures were altered in
color to show the detail. The first three images of the bodice that are dark
blue are truer to the gown's color. This gown can be worn bustled in the
back or simply let out the ties and have a draping train. We did not take pictures of the skirt bustle let down. We plan on
taking some shortly and will post them here for you. In the mean time, for
example purposes, we have loaded a picture of the porcelain Franklin Mint
Scarlett doll in the portrait gown. We used the doll's dress as a reference
when making this gown. The life size gown has an 18 inch drape at
the back of the skirt when not bustled. Portrait Gown can be
made in any color you choose.
~Inquire about Life size reproductions~ If you are interested in having any of the life size Gone With the Wind reproduction costumes ( gowns etc. ) please email us with your current dress size and height and the costume you are interested in replicating. We will send you back a measurement chart for fitting. We are not limited to Scarlett costumes. If you would like any of the other dresses or costumes from GWTW or other films we can discuss recreating them for you. Please send your inquiries about life-size dresses etc. to gwtw4ever2@earthlink.net Gown Prices
Since the figuring of the costs for one of these replicas can be time consuming taking many hours of research into current fabric costs, we will quote you the recent
charges for a few of the film dresses.
