Authentic handmade cape/modesty dress handmade in Lancaster Pennsylvania Dutch Country

Cape dresses are some of the most modest dresses to be found in the world 

 

Cape dresses (modesty dresses) are designed to conceal the figure better than modern dresses. 

They do a great job hiding the front and back of the upper body and body lines. 

Feminine and comfortable to wear while helping to protect from unwanted attention

Please Measure as I do to get the correct fit

Lay a dress that fits you well flat

Measure underarm to underarm, take the number you get times 2 for bust line

Side to side times 2 for the waistline

From the center of the shoulder seam down to the waistline for shoulder to waistline   

Measuring from the top waistline to the bottom of the dress for the waistline to hem

Side to side 9" down from the waistline, times 2 for hips 

Please be sure to measure!

These Authentic Mennonite or Amish dresses are handmade with no size tags, care directions or fabric-type labels. I attempt my best guess as to the fabric content of every dress is unique
