About this Costume
- Construction Details:
-
Bodice: I didn't construct this like a corset cause corsets hurt me too much so its just an unboned bodice! I used a corset pattern from Mccalls that I had to alter at the point a bit. For fabric I used Midnight Blue suiting fabric and dark blue twill for the lining :D It closes at the back with a zipper.
Undershirt: I used a kwik Sew peasant top pattern for the undershirt which was really easy :D And for fabric I used a Blue Knit fabric :D If I had to redo it though I would probably use a cotton or sateen :D
Skirt: The skirt was VERY easy! I used the snow white simplicity costume pattern which is basically a rectangle double the width of your waist. And all I had to do was sew up the sides and add elastic :D As for the fabric I used a blue cotton that is so light and fun to move in!!!!
Extras: For the bow I used the same material I used for the skirt and I followed the tutorial on Tracy's Costuming World :D And For the shoes I just found some cheap black pumps at Wal Mart! :D - Personal Thoughts:
- For some reason this dress was always my favorite from the whole movie!!!! I just loved the way the color looked on her and it was just so gorgeous next to her hair! Yeah I wanted to be her :D
