Shot Purple Anglaise

This was the first 18th century gown I made and I haven't worn it since 2007, so I pulled it out for Costume Con.  Here are a few pics:

It looked pretty in the sun!

Purple 18th Century Robe Anglaise

This is the first 18th century gown I made. It's out of a non-accurate dupioni, because I had it on hand, and it was my first gown and I didn't want to mess up expensive fabric.  I should really wear it again and get some better pictures.  I wore it at DragonCon 2007.
