A popular Regency dress is back!


This beautiful dress is known as the 'Emma Woodhouse' dress. It is made out of a special pale green moire taffeta that is very difficult to find. A couple of months ago, I thought that I had more fabric, but I couldn't find it. Well, a couple days ago I was thrilled to find much more of the fabric hidden in one of my fabric chests. Therefore, the 'Emma Woodhouse' Dress is available again. I estimate that I will be able to make 6 dresses out of the fabric, so the amount of time that it will be on the website is limited. You can visit the product page with a full description here.

New Designs and Spring Clearance!

I am excited to introduce eight brand-new designs! There are new dresses in Medieval, Renaissance, Colonial, Civil War and Edwardian. The designs include a dress inspired by Eowyn in 'Lord of the Rings', a costume seen in the period film 'The Duchess', a new Civil War ball dress, a costume inspired by Rachel Lynde in 'Anne of Green Gables', and others.

Also, I have marked the price down on several outfits. There are very few of these dresses left, so don't wait to grab them if you want! Save up to 15% for a limited time. I should add that there is nothing wrong with any of these dresses- they have simply been in stock for quite some time and I am trying to make room for new designs.

New Regency Coat and Hat!




I am very excited about the new Regency 'going-out' set. It has a soft brushed corduroy coat, which looks like velveteen. My favorite part is the hat. I have spent quite a long time perfecting this design and I am thrilled with the results. The page with the full details is Here.

Sneak Peek at new Regency designs!

Even though there are no pictures yet, I though I would let eveyone know what is coming up in the next week or so for Doll Clothes of Yore!
  • An absolutely gorgeous regency bedroom set! This includes a white chemise and a beautiful embroidered light blue dressing-gown.
  • A lovely melon-colored day dress inspired by a costume in the latest movie version of 'Emma' starring Romola Garai.
  • Soon I will make a long 'Spencer' coat. This will be made of dark blue brushed corduroy, which looks and feels like velveteen. I hope to put a straw poke-bonnet with this dress.

Pictures are forthcoming, and the product pages on the site should be set up in a week or so. For now, however, here is the link to the current Regency Gallery.

A Popular Design is back!


The limited edition 'Harriet Beecher Stowe' dress is a new version of an older design! The past versions have been extremely popular, and I hope that this one will be as well! The dress is fashioned after a popular Civil War design that features wide Bolero sleeves. There are only four of these dresses available, so if you love this design as much as I do, don't wait!

New version of an old design


In looking for new medieval designs, I came across this old design from 2007. It was a unique pattern, so I decided to make it again. It's a limited addition and as of now there are only three available. Click here to go to the product page on our website. Enjoy!
