* Sizes are UK sizes and expressed in CM. As a lot of my pieces are floaty in style and generous in sizing these size guides are just approximate average measurements as sizing can change depending on the style of the garment. Each garment depending on style may have different fits to the measurements above. You can add custom measurements above if you'd like more of a bespoke fit. FOR MY MADE TO ORDER PIECES I USE SIZES UK8-UK26 AS A GUIDE. I STOCK INDIVIDUAL SIZING FOR THESE PIECES AND I AM ABLE TO OFFER EXTENDED SIZING IF MY CURRENT SIZING DOESN'T CATER FOR YOU. IF YOU ARE IN-BETWEEN SIZES AND WOULD LIKE TO HAVE A BESPOKE SIZE MADE UP PLEASE CONTACT ME BELOW FOR MORE DETAILS.
Made here in Dark Garnet, indulge in the opulence of the Elizabethan era with my exquisite cotton velvet Juliet top, a regal piece that seamlessly marries history with contemporary elegance. This design draws inspiration from the grandeur of the Elizabethan period, showcasing a square neckline and lace detailing that echo the drama of that bygone era.
The Elizabethan square neckline is a statement in itself, framing the décolletage with a refined allure. A delicate lace panel adorns this neckline, adding an ethereal touch that speaks of romance and refinement. The intricate cross patterns in the lace weave a tale of old-world charm, transporting you to the courts of queens and the elegance of Elizabethan society.
The lace Elizabethan puff sleeves are a nod to the fashion sensibilities of the time. These voluminous shoulders, adorned with lace detailing, cascade into a fitted sleeve, capturing the essence of aristocratic grace. Each puff is a testament to the lavishness of the Elizabethan era, where fashion was a canvas for expressing nobility and stature.
The pleated waistline, meeting in the middle in an upward design, creates a flattering silhouette that harkens back to the iconic styles of the Elizabethan period. This upward design, coupled with a peplum hem, adds a touch of drama and sophistication to the overall look, reminiscent of the grand gowns worn by noblewomen of the time.
Crafted from sumptuous 100% cotton velvet, the fabric itself is a tribute to luxury and comfort, offering a tactile experience that complements the visual opulence of the design. The rich hues of the velvet further enhance the regal ambiance, making this top a statement piece for those who appreciate the timeless allure of historical fashion.
Wearing this Elizabethan-inspired top is not just donning a garment; it's an immersion into the grandeur of a bygone era. Let the lace and velvet transport you to a time of courtly elegance, where fashion was an art form and every garment told a story of nobility and refinement.
This piece is handcrafted locally in Cheshire by an exceptionally skilled seamstress. It is made from 100% Cotton Velvet and Lace, and has a 100% Bamboo Silk Lining. It features an invisible zip opening at the centre back, with a keyhole neck fastening featuring 3 pearl buttons.
As with all my Made-to-Order pieces you can customise the fit of this piece if my measurements do not work for you. This particular piece is a fitted design, so if you would like a roomier fit, then I would suggest to size up, or add in your bespoke measurements.
Please note that sizes above a UK14 will feature a seam down the centre front of the top due to the Velvet being very narrow.

OA Care Guide
OA Care Guide
As printed onto the care labels stitched into OA garments, I strongly recommend to dry clean your beautiful new additions. As these pieces are all handmade with love by an independent seamstress, in an ethical and sustainable way they are not processed with harmful chemicals and washed, and then rewashed like fast fashion brands.
If your piece has an alternative fabric - like a bright white collar on a purple dress then I would definitely advise to dry clean or spot clean to avoid colours bleeding into the collar. If a garment absolutely has to be washed then add 1 cup of vinegar to the rinse cycle or one-half cup salt to the wash to help hold in colors. Use color-catcher sheets, which trap extraneous dyes during the wash cycle to prevent bleeding. Digital printed garments' colour does not usually run, however, the lining of the garment may run. Please do not scrub your pieces as this can cause damage to the surface.
When possible it is always kinder to steam garments rather than ironing them. Steaming removes creases by relaxing the fibres of the fabric. Ironing, on the other hand, uses the heat of the metal base and weight to compress the fibres. The compression of fibres over time can cause irreversible damage and shorten the life of the garment.
Care Advice for Corduroy and Needlecord Fabrics
I recommend to spot clean Corduroy when and as needed, I strongly recommend you to dry clean OA garments, but if a full wash is required here is some care advice;
If possible, a gentle hand wash would be best on a very low temperature. Do not scrub the fabric as this will destroy the pile. On high heat corduroy tends to shrink and the dye can run. I would advise where possible to only dry clean.
To revive the ‘pile’ (the textured fluffiness of the corduroy) I would recommend steaming the corduroy. This maintains the fluffiness of the corduroy. DO NOT iron corduroy on either side of the fabric – this flattens the texture and can damage it. The needlecord I have chosen works best with steaming and is the perfect weight to prevent too many creases.
