My Period costume version 2

This is a continuation of the introduction to my costume classes at uni, there will be many more until the end of the year.

here I was fitting my corset toille and making alterations to the pattern, then I had to measure the length and width of the petticoat I will be making over the pannier.

this is the three views Back


Side


Front


And this is the pattern after I have made all the alterations

I had to take in 6cm in the waist, when I originally thought I would only need to take in 2cm. amazing how much our bodies compress.
stay tuned for more stuff in the next few months. :)
