Out of all your dresses, your weapons, the Isobel Dress is your preferred choice against the machinations of the Court.

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Dark Red/Azure Green Dress Isobel is a formal and luxurious red dress with long flared sleeves lined in green. Made from comfortable, soft velvet and brocade, this dress features detachable sleeves that can be worn open in the summer or laced over a chemise.

The Isobel Dress reaches from the shoulders to the ankles, with a longer back that is cut to allow for ease of movement. The dress is secured using lacing along the front. The style is inspired by medieval design, but the Isobel Dress can easily be used by almost any character or culture with a little creativity.

Available in colours Dark Red/Azure Green and Azure Green/Dark Red; and in sizes Small, Medium, Large and X-Large.
