gown, c1800-1808

gallery

Pattern:
patterns from Jean Hunnisett's "Period Costume for Stage and Screen"

Fabric/Materials:
cotton print, cotton (lining), hooks & eyes

Synopsis:
This dress was made for Bridget for one of our Twelfth Night parties. I used the same basic pattern as my own "Greensleeves" gown, although the end results are quite different. The front bodice and skirt back are less full on Bridget's gown due to the thickness of the printed cotton fabric used.

This gown was worn:
Twelfth Night, 2004
