Striped Polonaise-The Beginning

A while back, I bought the Period Impressions polonaise pattern in order to re-create the Duchess of Devonshire's floufy striped polonaise from the Bath Scene.

Also a while back, a friend gifted me with many yards of silver and cream striped silk. Perfect for this project!
Yesterday I began cutting out the fabric, and so far have put together most of the petticoat. Here is one of the flounce sections after it was pinked and frey-checked. Yay for costume movies for such a tedious job!
