Sheer Drawstring Regency Gown

I now have a few pics of my new Regency gown. I was pretty happy with it on the whole. It was comfortable to wear.  I don't know why the front seam came out uneven.  I think I'll just put a sash over it and no one will be the wiser. It'd be too much of a hassle to fix. :-)

I also need to redo my bodiced petticoat underneath. I threw something together for the party and it has to be redone.  I need to make it higher in the back too. :-)

  1. I love this dress, I want to go down to Bath to the Jane Austen center to got some patterns simply to see how authentic the dress will turn out, a great job well done

  2. So lovely! I've been dying to make a chemise gown! May I ask the weight of the cotton you used? (it's perfectly sheer!)

    1. Hi - sorry, your comment got buried! The cotton is actually a Target curtain!
