style Victorian gowns. \u00a0This gown was made from gorgeous silk shantung in a gorgeous cream color with vivid teal blue and brown deerskin leather trimming.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-1281\" src=\"https:\/\/denverdressmakers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/Dress-Back-719x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Victorian Wedding Gown\" width=\"298\" height=\"425\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Like many of our Victorian gowns, this one began with an inspiration from a Victorian fashion plate.<\/p>\n<p>The client loved the ruched front and the draped contrast bow on the side. \u00a0We also loved the idea of doing a very trim late Victorian silhouette&#8212;definitely not what you usually think of as a ball skirt shape, but something with a more modern (and yet still Victorian) feeling.<\/p>\n<p>But we didn&#8217;t want to do a straight reproduction style dress either.<\/p>\n<p>The Victorian-era was one of the most inventive and experimental periods in history. \u00a0And so we wanted to be equally inventive.<\/p>\n<p>We embroidered the corset and added flower shaped filagree buttons and draped chains and added filagree buttons to the bows.<\/p>\n<p>But\u00a0we had the most fun designing the deerskin trimmed shrug and the deerskin belt and pouch (in which the bride kept the groom&#8217;s ring and vows).<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-1283\" src=\"https:\/\/denverdressmakers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/Dress-Side-712x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Victorian Bustle Dress\" width=\"299\" height=\"430\" \/><\/p>\n<p>We also added heavy swing clasps to the corset.<\/p>\n<p>All of our dresses are so different and unique&#8212;just like the clients that contact us.<\/p>\n<p>So if you are getting married and might like a dress, just contact us and we can talk more.<\/p>\n<p>Every year, we make outfits for clients all over the world. \u00a0To get the ideal fit, we cut and sew a mock-up version of the dress and mail this to you and then have you send digital pics of the fitting so we can get the perfect style and look.<\/p>\n<p>To get started, send us an email ( superhero@vigilantelabs.com ) and we will get back to you with more ideas. \u00a0We can do pretty much anything and make any dress in any size!<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_masonry_media_grid style=&#8221;lazy&#8221;
