Upon reflection I really think the previous white regency gown has to go to someone like Louisa Musgrove, so I just had to draw one that would suit Anne a little better because she totally got robbed. So here’s a gown that’s a shade more sober than the white one, eminently suitable for playing the piano in while everyone else dances. The embroidery and satin only go so far in soothing a sad heart, but I like to think they’re worth a little something.
Why yes, I do love my new pencil sharpener, however did you notice?
So the latest poll is open for a few days yet, but it has a very clear winner, while this poll just has a couple of days to go and the competition is fierce. Don’t forget to vote in it! Soon we will have the Halloween Costume Battle Royale, too.
I’m so glad you decided to do dresses for Persuasion! That’s my favorite Austen book. And they are both lovely gowns!
The border detail here is very pretty and it’s a lovely vidid color. It’s nice that you can see the detail of the pleating despite the rich background color.
Thanks Rosepixie, RLC :)
The dresses get resized, so the detail is noticeable but not as clear as the original — here’s a closeup of the bodice. The actual size is halfway between the printable version and the larger size it scans at… so it looks a bit sloppy in the closeup and a bit nondistinct in the printable version, but perfect in my hands. Ah well ;)
This dress is gorgeous!
Do you have in mind to do more Persuasion dresses? I simply love them!
I think for now I’ll move on to another audiobook, but take heart, I did listen to Mansfield Park and Northanger Abbey at some point too ;)
I LOVE your fashions!!!!!!!! You are like, the best paperdoll person of all time. Have you ever given thought about a “Little Black Dress” collection? I think that would be great.
