Post by: dameoftherealm on June 30, 2008, 09:35:27 PM
Shopping for a gown for that weekend any good sites for those of us who need
a larger size? I ordered one the sleeve where to tight had them removed so it would work.

Castle Garden Creations is a nice place from what I have been refered to by those in the garbing section of the forum. Most prices are about $350 to $400 and they do rush. I have not seen their work, but as I said, those in the garbing section have refered them to many who come into that section.

Also check faireware on ebay or her web site http://www.foreverfaire.com/foreverfaire/welcome.html (http://www.foreverfaire.com/foreverfaire/welcome.html) I have a dress bye her that was custome. It is a nice dress, not my favorite of my dresses but still nice.

Best of luck in your quest.

Well I might recommend Midnight Breeze Designs (http://"http://www.midnightbreezedesigns.com/").  I can't speak of her gowns, but I am most pleased with the slops and doublet combo she custom made me.  I paid what I consider to be a more than fair price for the ensemble.  She even replaced the initial slops she sent because they were too tight due to measurement mis-communications on my part.
