    Soooo lovely, and the ending portion of the video is like a beautiful, romantic film! I spied the Molieres instantly; I sighed and wept a little because I never managed to get a pair when they were available. Your dress and entire look is just so beautiful! 🥰

    Gorgeous dress, so well done for completing this so beautifully and being so entertaining throughout - the small strangulated noises are so much more expressive than mere language could ever convey! Thank you for sharing this, it’s a bad day in England - as in Europe generally with the plague looking set for another surge - so you alleviated contemplation of yet another period of self isolation (immunodeficiency diseases- bummer) nicely - thank you so much - have a bunch of virtual flowers 💐 from Blighty 🙏🏻🥰🥰🥰🌹🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

    I piece quilts, and I always over buy fabric. I'm afraid of making a mistake and running out of fabric.

I look all over for fabrics like that, but just don't find them. Do you have a resource for beautifully delicate fabrics like that? I like the delicate fabrics so much and the pure white is just perfect and I can never find them!!! Thank you so much for posting this project. It is just perfection!

    • @DamesalaMode
      @DamesalaMode  3 года назад +2

      It was 100% fine! I was pretty surprised! The skirt is nice and light so it kind of floats along the ground, but I probably will make a removable ruffle if I need to wear it somewhere where I will be walking around a lot.

  • @alaskacosplay
    @alaskacosplay 3 года назад

    I have a question! When you added the boning to the back, is the boning channel for the side back curved seam, how did you attach it? I was a bit confused on how is the side back bone casing attached without curving too dramatically.

    • @DamesalaMode
      @DamesalaMode  3 года назад

      No, it's such a shallow curve that it didn't require any special shaping, but you can gently heat plastic boning with an iron (with a cloth between the plate and the bone) and shape it by hand when it's warm.

    • @alaskacosplay
      @alaskacosplay 3 года назад

      Thank you! I will be making a dress bodice with a similar back seam style and I might have to bone that part in case it will wrinkle.
