belated pictures from yesterdays fitting & oh my!!!!! isnt she looking good !!!
the petticoat is here, finally, and its feeling real blue right now, but im hoping when i get some ruffles & trim on there itll break up how full on it is- along with the darker teal stomacher.
the sleeves are half in here- i just had them on to test the rotation & i think??? im happy with it??? when the top is pulled up it sits pretty smooth. i need to cut in the armsyce a bit more- theres too much material around the front and i think lowering the underarm will help with the side wrinkling.
im still messing with the hem length-i might want to drop the front edge of the robe down a fraction, and the train is all up in the air, but i think im getting somewhere :)
i think thats all my notes! man i gotta settle on a trim pattern soon 🙃
#im feeling very LOOK AT HER !!!! LOOK AT HER !!!!!!!! right now#ok so i see many many issues with this in fact. but the impact is there#and im really hoping the trim brings it all together#i am simply trying to be proud of myself for doing this with no 18th c experience & probably inappropriate fabric#lady stede build#sewing#18th century fashion#cosplay#historical costuming#stede bonnet#she also needs a real good press to make those back pleats ✨️crisp✨️
