Meet Curse, she is an absolutely stunning one of a kind theatre made gothic dream, crafted in green crushed velvet. I LOVE this dress, vintage theatre pieces are always the most unusual, and this one is particularly stunning. She has beautiful frilly lace collar and cuffs, fitted bodice, flowing skirt and long straight sleeves, and she truly is a mythical marvel indeed. I am unsure of exact age due to her being a theatre made piece, but she does seem quite old. I can't wait to see her worn and loved!
This girl measures to approx UK size 4/6 - her velvet has stretch, her lining is stiff, this could be cut out of required to add more give.
Bust - up to 32"
Waist - 26" - 27"
Length - 52"
For reference our mannequin, Norma, measures to a UK 6.
The Curse 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. Her zip is a little chunky, but this does not detract.
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.
