I went to a reenactment event recreating the bourgeois of bilbao in the 1900s. it was my second ever reenactment event and I'm wearing my original 1900s morning coat, 1940s top hat and a GORGEOUS flower pin on my lapel. Alas, I injured my arm so it was a challenge for the pictures but I really enjoyed the day.
This is my first attempt of tailoring, I don't know how to padstich but the project is little by little coming together. I love it and it isn't as difficult as I'd have thought.
​
I have bought this pattern impulsively and I'm planning on doing it. My question is: I have already sewn male waistcoats and trousers and women's bodices. Is this kind of project extremely difficult?
Hey reddit! It's been a long time.
I've been into several projects: an 1890s walking ensemble which I'll show in another post and this dress from the start of the 19th century.
I have done several of these dresses so it was an easy one, however I'm not happy with the back closure because it leaves a gap (if anyone has a tip LMK!).
I'm also wearing a fichu and espadrilles? (Idk how to say it in english)
I took the pics in the commemoration of the french invasion of my town which was quite brutal btw
I hope you like it and happy sewing!
