There are a few places online that have similar dresses, gownsbysimpleelegance used to have this one, Ellyanna style 8471. No longer listed (everything else is strapless) but there are a few other online stores. I have two (pink and light blue), very exciting to wear though more of a quincenera instead of southern belle.
These girls make me want to pull out that dress and wear it tonight.
@mdolivetti I enjoyed your comments mdolivetti! Thank you for sharing them. I'll looki into the site you recommended as I like to keep dress makers on my radar for those that embrace the southern belle fashions and plantation lifestyle. These girls in this clip make me wish I were born in the Old South, rich, plantation owning, and drowning in compliments snuggled next to the piles of taffeta, satin and crinolines of the belles' skirts.
@Adoranger Oh yes! Delta's Susannah was a contemporary southern belle and even lived in a huge greek revival mansion with white columns. I wish she had returned for this episode and worn a huge hoop skirt like the rest of the ladies and poured on her southern accent as she flapped her fan in front of her heaving corset-held bosom. The Old South was an amazing place to be if you were of the cotton class!
@chatanwarrior I agree with you. I wish more ladies (Southern belle types here in the deep South) would dress like this. It seems that the latinas and hispanic mexican girls are all into the billowing hoop skirts, which is odd since these fashions were never part of their culture. However, they are part of US history (Antebellum). I'd rather see ladies and teen girls in full rounded skirts like these than muffin top and koochie shorts. I bet the upper class belles smelled really good too.
@plantationmuscleboy me too seriously, ya know i want a lady in the streets but a freak in the bed lol
its getting outrages with the less than dressedness of girls today, i saw a 4 year old girl in a mini skirt and one of those shirts that show off their belly, wtf does a 4 year old have to show off? i felt like punchin the momma for teaching her daughter skankyness is ok
@gailbostock Thank you for your comment Gailbostock. I totally agree with you about the return of the antebellum fashions. However, most girls today are galaxies away from being plantation southern belles unfortunately... It is gratifying to watch Hollywood recreate the Old South in all of its glory. I love the dresses in this clip. These rich beautiful belles resemble large puffs of cotton candy to an extreme feminie proportion.. Rebelicious.
Seriously, the clothes they wore were incredibly warm even in cool weather. We're talking layers of petticoat over a corset. And the fainting couches were for short spell of oxygen starvation from the tight corset. I have three FULL southern belle costumes that I put together and made parts of (pink, yellow and lavender) and oh my gawd, without air conditioning they are guaranteed to make me break a sweat!
@plantationmuscleboy absolutely to die for! I have three full southern belle outfits with big poufy, girly dresses like these in pink, yellow and lavender. If only I had some place to wear them!
@pinkpriss Wow! I'd love to see those... You know, I'm very bias when it comes to these fashions. The cotton plantation rich girls of the Old South wore them with such elegance and flaunted their wealth so deliciously with these huge billowing skirts. If I saw 'yankee' girls in skirts like this, I might be tempted to look, but when belles are wearing them, I'm melting with temptation!
