Well, as I put up the DevID with me draping on it, here is what I was working on - the top, my drape (not done at the time I snapped pictures, however) and the bottom, the garment it was referenced off of.

It is a Victorian natural-form bustle dress c.1880 or so, and is rather frumpy looking (all because of the trim,man, cuz I look kick-ass in the mock up!) but I really wanted to do this, for the past ... 3 years, I think?

So, obviously, I spazzed out about not only getting to do it (I think we were the last class that would get to do this project) but also for getting to drape it in my own size!

I'll get pictures of myself with the (slightly butchered in the fitting) mock up, and then eventually, I do have plans on making this for myself... possibly for my graduation party, so I don't have to answer the question "so what did you go to school for again?" from my whole family

I'll just scare them! Mwahahaha!

If anyone would like, I can scan in my notes from the garment, and get them to you, along with my whole collection of higher-res images, although they're not really useful, as I couldn't get a picture of the dress on a form (none it would fit on!) if you want to undertake reproducing it...I doubt it, but I thought I'd put the offer out there!

I think I've found a new favorite time in history More reproductions are in my future, I believe!
