i always wait with baited breath at your next project!
i was hoping actually you could give me some advice based on your knowledge of bustle patterns. im researching this gown from Dracula - minas green day dress, when she meets dracula in his divine grey suit.( i have a costuming friend who is getting practically a film replica made of that suit, so i promised id get the green suit done so we could parade together at events!) http://www.costumersguide.com/dracula2.shtml now im thinking TV463, modified for the bodice now the skirts... i know a petticoat is essential - is the tv101 too much or about right..she does have a distinct poof to the back of her skirt. the underskirt , i can see is loosely pleated or gathered all the way around. I cant seem to find a suitable skirt pattern for this... The bustle and waterfall drapery....i guess the waterfall is a seperate attached piece..but i cant seem to work out the gathered parts in the back from the underskirt!
