The mission - recreate this dress.
The reason - costume history lecture for Calgary Opera's production of Little Women
The timeline - due Jan 23, 2010
I know, I know, I'm crazy. But I know I can do this. I also have to make the foundation for the beast - the chemise, drawers, corset, under petticoat, crinoline petticoat and over petticoat.
My mom and I shopped for fabric today at Fabricland, one of very few stores carrying fabric suitable for clothing. Although I wanted silk, it was out of my price range so sadly had to settle for polyester (EEEEEKKKKK!!!!!) Horrifying to say the least. Stay tuned for pictures of my fabric and trim selections and for updates.
