The victorian bolero jacket is a design taken from an original 1880s fashion plate and features bolero styling at the front with a high neck, mandarin collar and single hook and eye fastening. At the back the panelling sweeps down and flares out in a peplum which sits elegantly over the hips. The sleeves feature light gathering at the shoulder and taper down to the wrist. The jacket is trimmed at neck and cuff with an elegant black venice lace. A little lace motif highlights the waist at the back.
Perfect hotsell for Steampunk, Victorian or theatrical outfits, this is the perfect finishing touch without resorting to a modern cover up or a shawl. The jacket also looks great teamed with more modern dresses and outfits for historybounding.
Features our gorgeous polyester taffeta fabric which is a high quality, silk like fabric that comes in a huge range of gorgeous colours. The jacket is lined in beautiful, toning paisley jacquard.
TO ORDER:
Choose your preferred colour from the drop down menu. Once your order is placed you will be sent a measurement chart and instructions.
The jacket is made to order to the measurements you provide at our Lincolnshire studio. As a custom piece this item takes a minimum 8 weeks excluding delivery. Please ask if you have any questions.
Listing is for the jacket only. It is shown with our bustle skirts which are available to order separately in the shop. The lace trim may vary to what is shown, but it will always be a black venise lace. If you are ordering the jacket with a skirt/bustle the lace trimmings will match and we recommend ordering both items together to ensure this. You can order the matching skirts here:
