late 1770s English gown

gallery

notes

pattern:
draped by me, based on my striped l'anglise

fabric & notions:
cotton print, cotton (lining), Rigilene

general notes:
Bridget finally got the dress we've been wanting to make her for years! It's pretty, it's flattering and it fits! Her recent weight-loss helps and also my better experience fitting but really for once we took the time we needed rather than making her frock a last minute job. I love you B!

As for her hair (she did it), hat (I helped a little) and cloak (she made it, I just supervised) all I can say is that she is disgusting.
