Step into the world of elegance and style with our LOUISE, 18th-Century Dress in Plum Purple Linen. This beautifully handcrafted garment is a faithful reproduction of the iconic "English dress" worn in Western Europe and America during the years 1770-1785. Made from high-quality prewashed linen, the dress features a rich plum purple color that adds a touch of regality to this historical piece.

The dress comes in one piece, with eyelets on both sides of the front opening to ensure a perfect fit. The large skirt, pleated in the authentic manner of the 18th century, measures a sweeping 37.5 inches (95 cm) long. This LOUISE, 18th-Century Dress Plum Purple is a perfect blend of historical accuracy and modern craftsmanship, making it a unique addition to your wardrobe or costume collection.

Each stitch and fold in the fabric is meticulously done, resulting in a dress that is as much a work of art as it is a piece of clothing. Own a piece of history and experience the elegance of the 18th century with our LOUISE, 18th-Century Dress in Plum Purple Linen.

Finding the Right Size:


Please refer to the size chart to select the correct size for your dress. Keep in mind that historical costumes don't follow standard sizing, so getting an accurate fit is important for comfort and effectiveness. Here's a complete guide on how to measure yourself.

Custom Sizing:

If your measurements don't align with the sizes on the chart, we recommend choosing the "custom size" option. After placing your order, submit your measurements through our Custom Sizing Form as soon as possible. Delay in receiving your measurements will also delay your order.

All our garments, including the LOUISE dresses, are handmade in our workshop in Spain. Each piece is crafted with love and care, using the finest materials to ensure excellent quality. These garments are meant to be cherished for years to come.

The typical production time for an 18th-Century Dress ranges from 4-6 weeks, depending on the current order volume. Keep in mind that the processing time does not include shipping.

  1. After putting on your historical underwear, step into the dress by sliding it over your head.
  2. Allow the back of the dress to hang behind you, and position the front panel against your abdomen (ensuring the waistband covers the lower ribs).
  3. Secure the front panel around your waist with the cotton ties.
  4. Finally, put your arms through the sleeves and arrange the train folds.
  5. To finish, thread the cord through the eyelets from bottom to top and conceal the knot in the neckline.

This dress is beautiful beyond words, and incredibly well made. My little phone camera does not do it justice at all, especially in my dimly lit room, but it's perfect. In my picture it is worn with stays and a bum roll. The dress was extremely well packed and protected, and the seller was quick to respond to my one question.
