1840s Day Dress

Yes, I did finish this last spring for Costume Con, but I finally took the time to take pictures for my website, which means I can post something now! I used the Laughing Moon 1840s dress pattern, the basic fitted view, but changed to be back-closing. I had to adjust the darts to fit me, but other than that the pattern worked really well. The most time-intensive part was doing the piping around the edges of the bodice and in the armholes.
