“Lost Princess” Fantasy Dress
Elegant cotton dress with exclusive trim
Every princess — both fairy and the real one — has to deal with troubles, tragedies and disasters. Every princess can find herself in a state where dresses with train, golden crown and ermine mantle are inappropriate and where she needs durable shoes, traveling dress of an easy-care fabric and a warm cozy cape for weather protection. But never the real princess falls asleep on a pea though covered with dozen feather-beds and never the real princess ignores etiquette, delicacy and elegance. If you are a princess fated to wander in search of shelter and protection - this garb is just the one for you!
The elegant dress is made of ordinary cotton fabric — coin a phrase, “for every occasion”. Tight bodice neatly enfolds the slender body, ample puffed sleeves liberate movements, high cuffs are fitted snugly to the hands (no worries about falling into the flame of fireplace or into the salad bowl at meal). Full skirt draped into soft folds suits perfectly both for promenades and horse riding. Low neckline coquettishly reveals chemise underdress. Delicate though noble trim with Mauritanian ornament turns it into gala dress, but not into a pompous one. Thickened bodice (two layers of fabric) tightens up with the dense lacing on the sides - the closest analogue of a modern zip-fastener. Curved joint line between bodice and skirt can be accentuated with the chain belt.
Please note, that chemise is not included, but available in our store.

I love this dress and I also have the vest, it is so beautiful and I am completely happy with it. It was a gift from my husband and I was so pleased with it. It's just perfect

I have a few things from armstreet, and they never disappoint! I recommend getting it custom sized to you. They will even make it shorter so it won't "drag" on the ground. It fits like a glove, and looks and feels amazing. Outstanding customer service, and people!

I love this dress and wear it to every one of our concerts. We even composed a song for it "The Runaway"-here's the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ENtIQsnAFDM It took a long time to get it and unfortunately there was duty to pay, which wasn't mentioned anywhere when I ordered it, but it was definitely worth it. The fabric is strong and high quality, it is sewn perfectly and has beautiful trims.

Wow! I love this so much. I was in a time-pickle for a Witcher-LARP and I needed to find a good handmaid costume. This did not disappoint! The dress is quality-heavy, stands out well, has beautiful details and sits comfortably on the body. I bought one standard size 4 as I did not have the time to get it custom-made and honestly it fit perfectly - except for the length, which was a little bit to the long side (I'm 1,65m tall, typical size M). Everyone commented on how great it looked. Thank you so much for this wonderful piece of medieval clothing!

A really beautiful dress that also drapes beautifully! The fabric is quite thick and of high quality, and you can tell from every single detail how carefully and lovingly everything has been worked (the laces, the fastenings on the sleeves, the trims etc.). The fabric also makes it suitable for colder days, so it can certainly be worn very well in spring and fall (it would probably be almost too warm for me in summer). In general, the dress is quite robust and still looks classy, which is a perfect combination for me (unfortunately, many classy dresses look as if they would tear with every careless movement). There is only one problem for me, but it probably wouldn't have been the same if it had been made to measure (I took a size 2, at 1.71m and 60kg): The dress fits me so tightly at the shoulders and under the armpits that it is very difficult to put on and take off despite the laces and unbuttoned sleeves (the sleeves are also very tight when buttoned, but with the thick fabric and the cut there is probably no other way if you want it to look nice), while the dress itself, even tightly laced, is a little loose at the waist and chest, so it's not actually too small. However, I also have quite broad shoulders for my figure, and a small bust, so as I said, it probably wouldn't be quite so difficult if it was made to measure. I also recommend wearing an underdress with it, because even with tight lacing you can easily see the skin underneath, and there is a gap at hip level (between the skirt and the top).

A gorgeous dress! The cotton fabric is quite heavy, so the dress falls beautifully and doesn't stick out. I opted for a custom-made dress and everything fits perfectly! The individual details on the dress are so lovely (buttons on the sleeves etc.) - just beautiful! About the service: very good! A member of staff got in touch with me (!) and asked if I would like to order the underdress one size smaller as it would fit better. Very good advice! I am absolutely satisfied and happy with my dress! Thank you!!!

I've had this dress for a few years now and I still love wearing it. It is gorgeous

Bree 16 of May 2020:Such an elegant dress that flatters so many body types! I love the heavier weight and extra volume in this dress, the way it moves, and how sturdy it is! Its shapes and details are exquisite, and it’s held up to all kinds of events. Though it’s certainly more weighty in construction, it still doesn’t let you overheat. Beautiful dress, with that very high level of quality Armstreet always puts forward. One of my favorite pieces!

I got this dress custom made a couple of years ago and I love it! I’ve worn it a number of times and it’s useful for a number of different settings (I’m a larper). Excellent quality and fabric! Will be wearing this for years to come

Rachel 17 of November 2017:
This is such a lovely dress, I absolutely love mine! It's very sturdy and of excellent quality. The fabric is quite durable and somewhat heavy. A note for buyers though. If you are between sizes like me (Waist fits size 2, chest fits size 4,) I strongly encourage you to pay the extra money and get it custom sized. I chose to buy the size that fit my chest and the result is a somewhat loose fit, despite the lacing. I'm also fairly short, so the dress is very long on me. If you're under 5'4, the stock size will probably be too long for you. Learn from me and get your dress sized, it's well worth it. That being said, I still adore my dress and look for any chance to wear it!
ArmStreet:Thank you for your review, Rachel! You look wonderful! Thanks for the photos!

Rachel 30 of July 2017:
This dress is sooo gorgeous! I absolutely love mine! A couple things for potential buyers to note: 1) Despite the fact that the dress is made of cotton, the fabric is very heavy. Heavy to the point it's difficult to get out of on your own. Not impossible though, just hard. My best guess is that it's some kind of cotton twill, but I could be wrong. The dress would be good for spring, fall, and some winter weather, but you're not going to be comfortable wearing this during the summer. 2) I would highly recommend getting the custom sizing done if you're between sizes like I am. My waist would have fit perfectly in a 2, but I went with a 4 because my bust wouldn't have fit the measurements. The result was, my bust fit perfectly, but since the waist is loose, it makes me look a bit shapeless. So please, get custom sizing! It's worth the extra cost!

Can you tell me what size the model is wearing? Thanks!
The model is wearing custom size. Please send us your bust and waist circumference so we could help you to choose the right size.
The chart for time is a little confusing. If I were to order this dress custom in the next couple of days how long would it take to get to me? If I order it standard is that just delivery time?
Dear Ellorah, pre-made dress is sent right away. Standard shipping takes about 3 weeks and express shipping is 1 week only. Please send us your bust and waist circumeference so we could help you to choose the right size. Custom size dress needs about 40 days to be made.
My waist size is exactly 96cm. Chest is 108 and biceps is 33cm. Since this dress has puffy sleeves I think I should order a size 8... But I am a bit worried about my waist size. My size around the hips is 104 cm, will that still fit a size 8 or better go with a 10?
Dear Inge, our size 8 should fit you tight and nice like on the pics of the listing. However, if you do not like tight fit, then it is better to proceed with size 10.
Hello I would like to ask how much will the dress cost if I completed the whole set of the dress. Thank you.
Dear Mano, please add all items you like to your cart and total price will be calculated autimatically. Shipping cost is combined automatically as well.
Question are the Lost Princess and the Found Princess dresses the same length - the Lost Princess appears in photos as if it has a bit of a train and the white Found Princess looks floor length all round? Both of these can also be made in black with the Black and Gold Celtic trim is that correct?
Yes, the dresses have same length, it is possible that those for photos were different a bit as they were made in custom size. Fixed sized dress are all the same, custom sized dress length will be made according to your full height.
I was wondering, could the puffed sleeves be made smaller? They seem to be a lot bigger than what I would want.
The puffed sleeves cannot be changed, sorry.
Hi! I wonder if this dress, including arms, could be made in velvet, if so which colours and price? /Frida
The dress can be made of natural velvet (the colours available: Blue, Burgundy, Bottle Green, White, Violet). The dress will cost $350.00 + $38.00 shipping.
If that works for you, we`re ready to send you a PayPal invoice for $388.00.
Hello! Will the standard size 4 be in stock again any time soon?
At the moment we can`t tell when the size 4 will be back in stock, sorry.
You can always order a custom made dress, please note that now there are last days of free shipping and you have a great chance to order a custom dress and get it shipped for free.
Also, the Found Princess dress is available in size 4, but in White color.
I'm very interested in purchasing the Lost Princess dress for an upcoming event and was wondering, if I ordered the dress within the next few days, would I be able to expect the dress before Nov? Also, prices differ on here from the Etsy shop, not sure if different sales are going on or if it is some kind of error.
If you order the dress in fixed size it will be sent asap. As shipping normally takes 16-21 days, you should receive the dress around September 26 if you order today.
If you need the dress in Custom size, it should be ready by the end of September, as manufacturing normally takes 19-24 days. You will definitely get it before November begins.
Hi. I would like to know if the dress could be made with detachable sleeves. Thank you!
The Lost Princess dress can not be made with detachable sleeves, sorry.
Hi If I ordered this dress in the next three weeks when would I get it?
If you order the dress in fixed size from stock, it can be sent at once, shipping takes 16-21 days. If you need a custom sized dress, it has to be manufactured first, manufacturing time is 19-24 days + shipping time 16-21 days.
I was looking at purchasing this in a fixed size 2 however I am concerned about the length of the dress. I am 5'10" do you think this dress would be too short? Or would it be okay? Thank you!
You need to get a custom size, since standard size items are too short for you. Please note, the women's clothing of standard sizes is designed for full height 5' 6" (168 cm). Fixed size dresses are 58" (148 cm) long in sizes 0-8 and 59" (150 cm) in sizes 10-12.
Do you happen to have pictures of this lovely dress in the other fabric colors &/or other trims? (the 'Found Princess' pictures are very helpful! I'd buy it in a heartbeat, but sadly, I can't wear white well...) I'm hoping to order one of these lovely gowns today or tomorrow.
Usually we make photo shoots of our items only in one basic color, so unfortunately there are no such pictures. For today we have only pictures of this dress in blue (the Lost Princess) and white (the Found Princess), sorry.
I am hoping to purchase the Lost Princess Dress, Belt, and the XIV Century Chemise sometime soon. Don't know if this is a question you can answer... But just in case... While budgeting for this lovely costume, would I be better off using one of these great current discounts, or waiting for Black Friday? No worries if this isn't a question you guys can answer. :)
Currently this dress, shirt and belt are available with discount, you save about $75.00 ordering them now. Unfortunately I do not know what will be the discounts on Black Friday, most likely about 15-20% off from original price.
Hi! Do you know approximately how long a custom order for this dress would take to manufacture and ship?
Manufacturing of the dress takes 19-24 days, and shipping takes 16-21 days, then total term will be about 5-7 weeks.
Is there any way to "blow up" the sample trim fabrics? Sample pictures would be awesome.
That's what we plan to do on our new site, we're working on it right now. Thank you for helping us to improve our service!
For the chemise underneath the dress, what color is it? The natural or white? It's hard to tell on my monitor.
Model from the pictures wears White color Medieval Exclusive XIV Century Style Chemise Underdress.
Hello! I'm looking to purchase this dress for an upcoming con and will need it in about 6 weeks; will the estimated shipping and manufacturing time be enough to get it to the US or should I request expedited shipping? Thanks!
We have enough time for manufacturing and shipping, please be sure to mention your deadline in a comment to your order. Welcome!
The in stock size would fit me in the chest and the waist, but my concern is the circumference of the arms. Could you let me know what size 10 accommodates?
We're working on this now, we will publish the size chart including the upper arm circumference in a couple of days.
Hi. Could this dress be made: 1.- In natural red volver? 2.- Without sleeves at all? Thank you!!!
This dress can be made without sleeves in natural velvet, the swatches of available reddish colors of velvet are listed below. This dress in velvet should be made with bodice lining, total price will be $320 for the dress with cotton lining or $345 - with natural silk linen + shipping. Please email us at contact@armstreet.com if this works for you.
Stunning dress. I'm curious to know if the lower sleeve (not the puffed bit,) could be made in red, and if so, would that cost extra?
Thank you! This dress comes in cotton, and unfortunately we don't have any red cotton, thus the dress cannot be made in red, sorry.
Would you recommend stays under this gown to achieve a smooth look?
Stays are not necessary, you can wear your usual bra. But please note that the low neckline of the dress requires a chemise/underdress.
I absolutely love this dress, but puff sleeves do not look good on my frame. Can this be made without the puff sleeves in the flax green?
Cannot be made without the puff sleeves or out of flax linen, sorry.
Hi! Very gorgous, unfortunately, it will be nice to have more color choices... Do it's possible to have this dress in others colours?
This dress comes in cotton, which is available in black, dark blue, green, white colors only, sorry.
