  • Classic Early 19th Century Dress Style
  • Made at Townsends
  • Available in a Variety of Colors

This dress is based on examples from around 1810. Its squared, slightly gathered neckline and short gathered sleeves are true to the period. The high under-the-bust waist is classic Empire. Both the neckline and waist are tied in back. The bodice is closed in back with bone buttons.

Because undergarment styles were extremely diverse during the Empire period, we have settled the issue for this dress by fully lining the bodice. The skirt is lined to about 36" from the underbust, which emulates the knee-length chemises occasionally worn during the period. The subtle back train gives the skirt a graceful, sweeping hemline.

Clothing styles took a dramatic twist at the turn of the 19th century. The Empire dress was a prime example of this French fashion invasion, based on that society’s fascination with the ancient cultures of Greece. As the Empire style made its first foray into British societies, fabrics were very wispy and somewhat transparent, revealing the female form that had previously been revered with utmost modesty. Prudish reactions were strong. As a result, this very short-lived fashion period went through even shorter phases delineated by fabric choices and undergarments (or most often, the lack thereof).

Hydrates even dragon skin
Scent: Scented, Size: 26 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
As someone who survives Northeast winters with skin that reacts like it’s being punished for existing — flaky, angry, and audibly crunchy — I can confidently say this body wash is a full-blown miracle in a bottle. If you’ve ever woken up in a radiator-heated apartment feeling like your shins have been slow-roasted overnight, this is for you. First off, the scent is light and pleasant, like what I imagine clouds would smell like if they went to therapy. But the real magic is in the feel - - - silky, smooth, and somehow more hydrating than most moisturizers I’ve tried. This stuff lathers like a dream and rinses off clean, but leaves your skin feeling like it just drank a gallon of water and booked a spa day. I’m not saying I have dragon skin, but if Drogon from Game of Thrones took a hot shower in my apartment, I’d lather him up with this and send him off glowing. Thanks to the Vitamin B3 and hyaluronic acid, my skin no longer flakes off like parmesan cheese every time I take off a sweater. Winter in the Northeast is basically a four-month battle between you and every heating unit trying to desiccate you like jerky. This body wash is your secret weapon. Honestly, it should come with a tiny cape. Five stars. Ten if you’ve ever itched your shin so hard in February that you briefly considered moving to Florida.

Does not reduce age sagging skin but does make skin soft. smells pleasant
Scent: Light Scented, Size: 26 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Used body wash for awhile along with the lotion. Doesn't firming like it says but kept my skin so soft and smooth. Smells good. Stopped using the lotion tho and did notice slight difference in sagging skin. So pretty much tells me works just not as good as expected. I do love the product overall. Must use faithfully for better results. Texture is great. Not to heavy.
