![Attempting to Make an 18th Century Dress
Do you ever get so excited to skip some of the early *really important* steps? This project is a prime example of that. But I learned some stuff from it, so all is not lost!
BLOG POST WITH MORE INFO: https://angelacostumery.com/2017/12/16/a-purple-linen-18th-century-dress/
Also - Im really not looking for people to tell me it looks fine and Im being too hard on myself. Its cool if you feel that way, but there is a lot wrong with the fit of this (more than is necessarily visible in the included photos, they were taken to make it look good, after all).
I know I can do better, and I know what went wrong. Acknowledging that is important for me to improve moving forward. Im not upset about the flaws, just very aware of them!! And that attitude helps me avoid those mistakes in the future.
✩✩✩
Mentioned:
The linen was purchased from Jo-anns
I buy plastic boning from onlinefabricstore.net
My references were primarily Demelzas wardrobe in Poldark.

My name is Angela Clayton, I’m a twenty year old designer and seamstress who is currently living on Long Island, in NY.
I’ve been sewing for five years and focused on period costumes and original designs for the last three. I make costumes for fun and to expand my skill set so I can hopefully get a job in the industry someday.
I can be contacted with inquires about paid work via the email above.
