Striped Cotton Circus Skirt with Velvet Ribbon Detail: C1910 France
Item Details.
From the early 1900s a fabulous stripey circus style skirt in red, palest lilac and off white enhanced by a black velvet ribbon stitched above the hem and a faded blue lamé ribbon around the waist.
The waist band fastens with hook and eye closures which can be moved to make the waistband smaller or to increase its size.
The skirt is so fabulous that it inspired our photo shoot, which was also took inspiration from our local and completely wonderful Gifford’s Circus & their sweet little dog act.
Please see our other listings for the blouse/bodice top shown in the photographs.
