I wanted to make the Italian gown worn retrousse (or the robe a la polonaise as the Met calls it) from 1780, so I bought some reproduction fabric, and sewed it all up! I tried to use as historically accurate a sewing method as possible, though I did use a machine to stitch up any parts that wouldn't be visible from the outside.
