Welcome back to the dress diaries. Previous posts in this dress diary:

I love historical costuming, but please note that this dress is in no way intended to be historically accurate, although it is historically inspired.

Academic cleavage, realising that a detour can be a shortcut, and guards! guards! )

What a wonderful outfit! It gives such a glorious shape, and I love your construction photos. Thankyou for going to such effort to post all this :D

Thank you! I really love how this dress makes me look even taller still. I already am 1m90 tall - that is 6"3? The slim waist, long bodice, and vertical pleats just... Jack-and-the-beanstalk me.

I am so jealous of your hight! At five nine, I'm not exactly short, but I have wide hips compared with waist, so any pleats tend to make me look squat :P
