Our Victorian Strolling dress is made of iridescent taffeta. The bodice is fitted and constructed with darts. It opens up to the waist with velvet covered buttons and has a hidden zipper opening the rest of the way down. The high ruffled collar as well as the skirt peplum are made of contrasting pinstriped taffeta and edged in black grosgrain ribbon. Grosgrain bows can be found elegantly placed on the sleeves as well as the back peplum, which drops down into a full circle skirt...perfect for whirling drama on the dance floor.
