Hermione Overskirt is done...sort of

[madamemodiste]

It needs a waist closure and a back hem, but it's done. Unless I decide to add lace trim to the pannier hem.

The underskirt used here is the same one that goes with the Lady Dragon gown (TV 221).









What I really like about this overskirt is it can be worn with either proper Victorian underskirts, or to jazz up any long skirt.

Yay, thanks so much!

Absolutely stunning. I think I see what you mean about adding the lace. It might make it even more fetching. :)

[madamemodiste.livejournal.com]

I'm so glad you agree! It's going on today! Thank you!

Oooooo...I was just thinking I needed to see that overskirt in a crisper fabric than is on the TV site - thanks for posting! It looks great!

Gorgeous!! Makes me wanto do one now!

[madamemodiste.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

And YES YES you should make one, too!!

[medvssa.livejournal.com]

I love that overskirt, I was thinking of getting the pattern... now I definitely do, you've made it so beautiful!!

[madamemodiste.livejournal.com]

I look forward to seeing your version. I like to see the different ways people make up the patterns!

[creedsgalbirdy.livejournal.com]

Funny, I never really cared for this overskirt until now. Using a different fabric for the pannier makes it so much more interesting and lovely. I think adding lace will kick it up a notch. Awesome, as usual.

[ghost-ofa-rose.livejournal.com]

Absolutely gorgeous! Could you send it to me please???? I guess I just have to copy you :D.

Where did you find the black/red striped fabric? I've been searching everywhere for such fabric.

[blackcat452.livejournal.com]

Wow, I didn't really care for it when I saw the pattern, but you make it look fabulous. I'm so jealous

[psychogothkitty.livejournal.com]

so lovely, I love the fine stripe.
