Let's Talk 1860s

I'm not going to call this a "civil war" gown, because it's more 1865-1870. It's an 1860s Court or Ball Gown ( Read more... )

19th century

Anything you do with silk taffeta will be impressive, though I admit I'm loving the peach gown.

I love the peach gown too! The fringe, the ruffles, the big booty skirt...

I love the peach gown as well, but really like the extra textures on the bertha and apron on the cream gown. Tough choices. If it were me, I'd try to do the peach but add extra texture in there.

Oooo Pretty! They are all seriously fabulous. I can see why you're having a hard time.. :) Kind of off topic, but why are all those royal ladies facing the same direction in their portraits? :P Just strikes me as a little odd... :)

Wow, I didn't even notice they were all posed the same way! haha :)
