I am so in love with the Sleepy Hollow Dress I made last year, but I very much wanted to make a shorter, more casual version that I could wear every day, as an "every day cosplay". I realized my aesthetic is cottagecore, but also just, costume-core, where everything is a secret cosplay. So in honor of this, I wanted to make this 18th century zone front dress, but as a one piece, easy to wear dress.
In this video, I show myself drafting the pattern, sewing it up, including boning the insides, and putting the stripes just so as in the movie. I utilize sewing a full circle skirt as well as showing how to pleat a skirt and put in on in the 18th century method.
