How women are wearing the Pinstripe Victorian Wedding Dress
You may be surprised
Although designed for refined gothic victorian or steampunk weddings this design has been popular for special events with a victorian costume cosplay or historical costume twist.

Rhiannon
We love how costumer and cosplayer Rhiannon from Chianti and Lace took inspo from tv show character, Nadja from "What we do in the Shadows", to create this cosplay costume she named 'Arianna'. She used two pieces from the Pinstripe Victorian Wedding Dress and added the Black Victorian Blouse. Rhiannon takes commissions and is obviously super into cosplay :) She has been sewing for about 18 years, been sewing as a profession for about 3 years and takes a lot of inspiration from past centuries, especially the 17th-19th centuries.
Thank you so much for putting all of it together for me, its one thing to have the undergarments, quite another to have all the top too!
