Lady Frances Pierrepont 3.0

Finally got a picture of my updated dress. Original was [link] then [link]

I remade the skirts because they were too short on the last one, made a new farthingale ([link]) and also remade the bodice because it was too long on the other one, and I gained weight and had to add more fabric.

The dress took me about 3 years of on and off work to finish, because I kept redoing things as I learned more about making the gowns, and about 100+ hours, including all the beadwork. All of the trim has tiny amber colored beads hand sewn in, as well as on the sleeves and forepart. I made the french hood ([link]) and everything accept the shoes, bloomers, fan, goblet, and chemise. (chemise bought from www.theatticshoppe.com)
