Construction Details:

The whole outfit was created using a historical recreation pattern with the massive help of Usa_ko. I give a ton of credit to Usa_ko for helping me out with this outfit because without her help it would not had been completed due to health issues during the time we were making the outfits.

The dresses are made out of yards and yards of taffeta.

I had to fit the top to my size which was a lot of tailoring work. Then started the journey of hand sewing all the Swarovski crystals onto the top. The contrast ruffles were ruffled with my ruffle foot. Usa_ko assisted me in putting the lining and zipper into the top.

The bustle of the skirt and butt pillow were constructed by Usa_ko. I made the A-line skirt and then handed sewed all the snaps to hold the bustle onto the skirt.

Personal Thoughts:

This is what happens when two crazy girls say, we want to make big puffy dress and cover the tops with swarovski crystals...
