Sally Green Historical Costumes

18th to 19th Century Costume


NEW!
Napoleonic Shirts
- £25.00
Collared, button to neck, buttoned cuffs. Mother of pearl buttons.


We generally consider eras after 1700 to be outside of our standard production coverage. However, this does not mean that we do not make later costume, in fact we have completed commissions from Tailcoats for the Gentry down to Smocks for the Labourer, from Dresses and Gowns for m'Lady down to the Aprons for the Maid Below Stairs.
We therefore make strictly to customer requirements. You will need to provide a complete set of diagrams or illustrations of the garment(s) and a quotation will be provided for your consideration. Please allow 2-3 months for research, pattern making & testing, cutting and manufacture, dependant on the complexity of the garment.
