I am going to sign up for decorating the Sunroom/Sewing Room at Ardenwood. Cathy is going to help me and she already has lots of ideas. We always work well together on these planning projects.
The room looks like this currently:
I am seriously thinking of "sort of" reproducing this dress ......
It is a 1900 House of Worth Ball Gown.
It will be fitted to this 1900 dress form.
I bought this fabric just on a whim several years ago. It is peacock colors sort of metallic irridescent.
These are the measurements of the dress form:
neck 15.5
bust 36.25
waist 30
hips 47
bust to shoulder 9.5
waist to bust 6.5
shoulder to floor 53
waist to floor 37.5
There is a lot of beading to time may be an issue. Know what I will be doing evenings and rainy days...if it ever rains this winter.
