Gold Linen Regency Gown


This is a Fabric I wish I could have gotten more of. It's a lovely gold linen with an embroidered eyelet detail along one edge (which I used for both the hem and the front of the bodice) This is a drop front regency style dress.


The back is pleated and I just love the way the fabric hangs.


I added several rows of pintucks and a matching picot edge ribbon to match the deatil on the sleeves.

This dress has already found a home and I have almost enough for another though I may have to play around with it a bit, either adding a complimentary sleeve or shortening the skirt as an 'overskirt' with a cream petticoat...who knows.
