DVS Designs

DVS Designs is a business dedicated primarily to accurate
reproduction of women's historical clothing. Primarily for
reenactors, the clothing produced is high quality and
historically accurate. In addition to reenactors, clothing
can also be worn on stage. Currently, a line of clothing is
offered from the 1750s to the 1910s.

Sense & Sensibility Clothing

I named my business "Sense and Sensibility,"
because my designs are for lovers of Romantic
fashions who want sensible clothing that fits
nicely. I create all my dresses with period
details and custom design them to suit your
individual tastes, making each purchase
unique. With the help of two part-time
assistants, I become your personal
seamstress, tailoring patterns to your exact
measurements and selecting fabrics
according to your color and style preferences.
You receive a comfortable, beautiful outfit you've
helped to design! My prices are quite
wallet-friendly, with most dresses
averaging between $75 and $150.
Truely lovely designs and construction.
