So clearly, the gown does not at all fit my non-squishable, short-waisted dress form, but here's its current state. The skirt is attached. I still need to bind the front bottom of the bodice, and the skirt needs to be hemmed. A ton. It's at least a foot too long. I also still need to attach the ribbons to the edges of the front of the skirt, so I can tie it on. But overall, it's pretty close to being done! And then I will make the chemise.
