1916 Preview

I've got two pictures as a preview of my 1916 evening dress. I'm going to try to get better ones when I wear it to the theater next month.

Very pretty! I love the pleating on the bodice and the overskirt is a great shape!

Thanks! There seem to be a lot of overskirts of that shape from right around 1916; it must have been very popular.

You look lovely! The little rosebuds are the perfect finishing touch. I think it's those small details that really make it.

Thank you. I really lucked out on them - I wasn't expecting to find anything at JoAnn and just swung through the floral section since I was there anyway so I was surprised when they had pretty little flowers that didn't look cheap or plastic.

Thanks! Green might be one of my favorite colors to wear...
