Bring out the vixen in you with this gorgeous neovictorian ballgown. Luscious lace and decadent damask combine for the perfect blend of sass and elegance. It's dripping with Venise lace everywhere possible, and since the bodice is a steel boned corset, it's perfect for hugging your every curve.
As with all of my corset ball gowns, this item isn't one piece – it's a 5 piece set that can be mixed and matched with other items in my costume collection, and in your wardrobe. It includes the following:
"Victorian Vixen" Damask Bustle Jacket **
Stalk the night in this drop dead gorgeous dress jacket. It's a pattern sculpted to hug your every curve, with a swooping keyhole neckline, pointed front, and a sweeping bustle back with a slight train. It's trimmed in decadent Venise lace, and clasps with frog closures.
~"Contessa" Bustle Skirt~
A historically inspired bustle skirt to bring out the grand lady in you. And it's convertible! Ties on the sides can be pulled to shorten the skirt to knee length. It's made from shimmering satin and trimmed in ruffled lace everywhere possible for Victorian charm.
"Pettibustle" French Bustle Petticoat
My fluffy bustle petticoat is an awesome piece, capable of converting any of my bustle skirts into a more historically accurate narrow bustle silhouette. It's modern in construction, however, made from bustled organza, so super easy to wear, sit, and dance in.
~Corset~
To keep the costs of my ballgowns down, I do not make my corsets from scratch. I've instead contracted with a wholesaler to make corsets from my own vintage hourglass pattern. They are full steel boned, cotton lined, and will comfortably reduce waist by 2 to 4 inches.
My handcrafted (and perfectly matching) hats are sold separately here:

**I receive frequent requests to sell "just a jacket" in my Victorian Vixen style. I've drafted the jacket pattern for a perfect fit with my exclusive hourglass corsets, and it will not fit over corsets from other manufacturers, underbust corsets, or over natural form (no corset). So I am afraid that I can't sell them separately!

– How to Order –
(`¯`•.,_.^._,.•`¯`)
To make your perfectly fitting costume, I will need the following measurements:
Bust (at widest)
Waist (at smallest point)
Hips (at largest point over butt)
Abdomen (halfway between waist and hips)
Upper Arm (over the biceps)
Skirt length (from top of hip bone to floor, in the shoes you plan to wear with your gown)
Include these measurements under "note to seller" when you check out, and I will craft your gown to fit.

– Sewing Time –
(`¯`•.,_.^._,.•`¯`)
This ball gown is made to order – and I usually have a pretty large sewing backlog – previous orders that I must complete before starting on new ones. Usually I can complete sewing orders in about 4 to 6 weeks. However, during my particularly busy times, it can take up to 8 weeks to complete new orders. So please plan accordingly!
For information about my current backlog and timeframes for new orders (updated weekly) please see this page:

Beware… A gown this adorably seductive could be dangerous to onlookers. Please strut responsibly!
