Gothic Lace Patchwork Court Dress

A court-style dress built from patchworked lace, with a gothic, slightly undone romance. It sits between medieval court and Victorian gothic, so it suits either theme.

On Halloween in the city, let the lace texture be the costume. Cinch the waist with a corset belt or wide leather belt, add stacked antique-style rings and dark, blurred eyeshadow, and leave the hair loose and slightly textured. For more drama, a hooded cloak over the shoulders turns it into a wandering-noblewoman look and covers you between stops. Lace can snag on rough surfaces, so skip studded bags and be careful with bar stools and railings. Check the listing photos for the color options and panel detail before you plan your makeup.
