Regency is what got me started costuming. I would show my first dress but it's kind of embarrassing.
 |
Trained drop-front dress in blue spotted musiln, with aqua silk spencer based on one from Pride and Prejudice.
Worn at Costume Con 29, April 2011 |
 |
| The bonnet/capote is based on one from Sense & Sensibility and the reticule is my own design. For more information about this dress see the dress diary. For the spencer. For the gown. |

| The back. This also shows the russet bonnet I made, inspired by one, again, from Pride & Prejudice. |
 |
| My Regency jumper. Lightweight blue wool with green fringed trim and ribbon, antique buckle and white cotton shirt. I based this jumper off one from the new Emma movie. |
 |
The back and side. It closes with 4 buttons up the back. The skirt is pleated to the dress. I am wearing it over my 1820's corset and a lightly corded petticoat
