One-of-a-Kind Custom Elizabethan Court Gown – Former Bristol Queen’s Court Cast Piece
This museum-quality ensemble was handcrafted for the role of Mary Cavendish, Lady Talbot (Group of St. George) for the Queen’s Court at the Bristol Renaissance Faire. Designed for the rigors of full-time performance, it offers the authentic weight, "heft," and silhouette of true 16th-century nobility.
Fabric: Constructed from 5 yards of premium forest green cotton velveteen, lined in coordinating green poly-silk for comfort and durability.
The Bodice: Features a historically accurate English square-cut silhouette. It is lavishly embellished with hand-sewn gold metallic couching in a "T" pattern, accented by emerald Swarovski crystals set in gold filigree medallions. Double-tabbed detailing at the hem and shoulders is finished with hand-applied metallic gold cording.
The Sleeves: A masterwork of 44 total pieces (22 per sleeve), each individually detailed with metallic gold cording and authentic freshwater pearls at every junction.
The Skirt: A full, heavy-weight cartridge-pleated overskirt. The front opening features hand-sewn gold couching in an intricate diamond lattice pattern.
The Forepart: Gold forepart with a velvet-accented center and hem, further embellished with matching filigree, pearls, and Swarovski crystals.
Sizing & Fit
Base Size: Small (Approx. 32" Bust / 25" Waist).
Adjustability: The bodice features corset-style lacing in the back. It can comfortably accommodate an additional 2–3" in the bust and waist depending on your preferred lacing gap or the addition of a modesty placket.
