Victorian Blouse Womens Gothic Pirate Shirt Vintage Long Sleeve Lotus Ruffle Tops

I purchased this as part of a cosplay of Silas from Sorcery of Thorns. The photo shows it right out of the bag. It is obviously needing a good steam. The fabric is heavy, not see-through at all, and the stitching is surprisingly tight and even for a mass produced item. It has a nice drape and stretch. The lace is thick, evenly placed and well manufactured. The back features a corset lacing~ the ribbon isn’t the best but can easily be replaced. I will be wearing a waistcoat over it as well as an embroidered tailcoat, so it won’t show anyway. The buttons are white plastic; I will be replacing them with mother of pearl or abalone for the costume. The color of the shirt is a soft fawn taupe, perhaps a bit darker than the online pic. It includes a simple tie back cravat (Silas would NOT approve) with a crystal cravat pin, each packaged on its own. All in all, it was a great purchase that fits extremely well and is of great quality. For reference, I am 5’3”, 125 lbs with longer arms; I bought a medium. The cuffs fall to my second knuckle and are very belled and floppy, which I think will look amazing showing under my tailcoat.

I don't usually write reviews but this blouse inspired one. The design is excellent and well executed, a notch above the standard costume. The material looks like cotton which fits with the Victorian theme, but is stretchy and forgiving. The XXL fit my plus 18/20 W figure well, with the exception of the bust area as other reviewers noted (mine is 48 inches which is within the size range but.... would be gaping open without a pin). Reading other reviews, I was convinced it was not going to fit but gave it a shot and was pleasantly surprised. There isn't an inch to pinch, but the snug fit is flattering. I'll wear a tank underneath and pin the bust area. Will be part of a fun witch costume along with a Victorian skirt. A bit more sophisticated than the usual "sexy" witch costume, but not frumpy at all.

Love wearing this for renaissance fairs! It is versatile, can fit into a ton of different styles, and is just overall really pretty. I love the bell sleeves and the fact that the cravat is removable, as well as the pin. It's soft, it doesn't feel cheap, and the corset built into the back help with sizing. The material is a little thin, so wearing anything dark under it is noticeable. I will say it's a bit small in the chest, so ordering a size up and then tightening it with the corset may be a good idea.

True to sizing, except neck was oversized. Material has a rayon like finish. Appearance is excellent. Washed it first, and it does need a good steaming as it arrives with many packing creases.

Looked fabulous on. Wore it to a murder mystery dinner and got so many compliments!

Overall the quality is as-expected if not a little bit better. My issue here is with the fit. I ordered a size medium because I knew this fabric would have no give to it and some other reviews said to size up due to the bust area. As you can see there’s some gaping and tightness in the chest area, but the collar, waist, and sleeves are very big. I tried cinching the shirt a bit tighter to get a better shape and alleviate some of the bagginess but then it looks odd in the back (the chest was a bit too small even before cinching). If I sized down the bust would definitely be way too small - this shirt is better suited for people with a smaller chest (I am 34C for reference). It feels comfortable and the details look great though! Actually the brooch is way better than what I expected. If you’re willing to sacrifice some more specific aesthetic details for an overall look and a comfortable shirt then this would be a good pick.

High quality fabric with perfect fit. Delivered promptly. I would recommend this seller.

The material feels nice, but it seems just the slightest bit sheer. The sleeves fit quite a bit loose on me. Though the waist if it doesnt fit right you can tighten, or loosen quite a bit, with the ribbon in the back. The neck ruffle is seperate and ties around the neck, and it comes with two pins, one for each layer, to make it look nice.

Size is right and lace back is adjustable. I love it.

Tolle Qualität, alles bestens.

Très satisfaite de mon achat! Taille standard.

I absolutely love this shirt, especially the sleeves. I get compliments all the time and it really pairs well with my other clothes. I would say the material is a bit thin and not the best quality but these types of things usually aren't so that was to be expected. It has a makeshift corset thing in the back but i wouldn't say it really does anything because of where it is placed. It was definitely worth the money.
