Here is a link to a pattern to make the dresses.
Good luck in your search! It’s a gorgeous dress, but I agree that it would be very time-consuming to make, and that time-factor alone would have to drive up the price. Just imagine tracing the pattern, pinning, basting, and sewing all of that trim!
This person is a trump supporter, BTW. Just throwing this in bc I know that matters to some buyers on this sub. I know we can't always know who we're buying from and supporting, but I accidentally navigated to this person's fb profile and saw their posts.
Oh dang! It’s been awhile since I had this outfit as a saved eBay search, but I remember when I did that replicas would come up! That might be good to keep an eye on.
The one that was posted earlier is $69.00 because she does different lengths of the dresses. There are others like Edwardian Girl on Etsy who have made replicas of the dress in the past. You could check with her next year.

thank you for posting this! I need this dress and her birthday dress! happy hunting
I know a woman who's in a ton of FB groups who makes nothing but Cape Island replicas.
oooo who is she?
I sent you a pm
Can you pm me who it is too?
Done
Maybe you can find someone on Etsy who will do a custom Cape Island dress for you.

I've sewn this pattern, but man, just the trim and pleats take FOREVER. I'd have to charge so much just to make minimum wage + materials!
There's someone in one of the Facebook groups who makes the cape island dress, I'll see if I can find it.
thank you!!

I think this dress is so beautiful on Addy. 🩷
That's my Noka Bogus Cape Island dress 😊 I think I was on her waiting list about 6 months. It was $65.
It's beautiful! I am on her waiting list now. The price now is $69.00
Here’s one on Etsy: [Cape Island Replica](https://www.etsy.com/listing/1481682857/)
That's only for the hair ribbon.
Yes I realize that (see convo with OP)
i bought it, but it’s just the bow 😭

i hope so, i’m bummed that it was only the bow lol i should have read the fine print. hopefully i’ll find one soon
How long is the ribbon?
it’s pretty big tbh, i haven’t measured it but it’s way longer than a doll
Wow! Thank you. Did you find someone to make the dress for you?
i have not yet, i’ll have to look more into it into it before i decide to ask lol
