I need to also point out the AMAZING blog & post where I found such beauty, over at Atelier Caraco Canezou: The Marie Antoinette Story.
The stomacher on this example is a bit long, but the shape of it is what I'm after, plus the skirts and even the apron....maybe. Of course I'd want an embroidered one like this, but I'm not sure I can kick that much ass...yet.
This particular cut is from, and will also place my final ensemble, from the very early 1780s.
I saw that dress for the first time about 2 weeks ago, and i just gasped. It's so perfectly beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI'm a sucker for pink and green together.
It's SO GORGEOUS.
