Vintage Wicked Witch of the West Costume. This is a black two piece moire satin bodice and skirt set. This is a reproduction piece that was most likely made for the theater in the 40s and is still quite wearable. It is a Victorian era look but is clearly not Victorian as it has a metal side zipper in the skirt and the inside has been finished with pinking shears.
The bodice has 7 jet black shiny buttons, leg-o-mutton style puffed sleeves with cuffs, a flared peplum and boning in the side seams. Please note, there is a 2 inch area where the fabric has started to split in the back of the bodice near the waist that can be patched or mended. Please see photo.
The skirt fits like a trumpet skirt and is made up of several godets and is quite flared. There is also a detachable bustle piece that is worn like a belt that can be removed if desired. The skirt has a button and metal side zipper.
Please note this is a one of a kind item. The hat is NOT included
Perfect for a Wicked Witch of the West Costume or a Victorian Mourning dress.
