Meet Claret, she is an absolutely beautiful understated deep wine rich soft cotton velvet handmade dream dress. I love this one, she is gothic, she is understated, she is vampy and she is totally alluring. She has mutton sleeves (which will look so much better on a body), high collar, sweet lace trims, high waist and a full length flowing skirt. She is beautifully crafted and very high quality. She would look beautiful paired with pendants and is the perfect bleeding heart heirloom.. 

This girl measures to approx UK size 10/12

Bust - up to 38"

Waist - 33"  does sit high

Length - 54"

 For reference our mannequin, Norma, measures to a UK 6. 

The Claret has been freshly cleaned and is ready to wear. DRY CLEAN ONLY. She is in good vintage condition, she has a few minor signs of wear.

ALL vintage velvet comes with small signs of wear to the pile of the fabric. This is part of the charm.

 This beauty has minimal signs of vintage wear, but please bear in mind that our pieces are true vintage, they’ve been danced in and they have been lived in, so all of our garments will carry your usual signs of vintage wear. Anything that we think is outside of what would class as usual vintage wear, we will state.
