The unfinished bodice without the finished front. The lining is done but hasn't been attached to the bodice back. The straps for the red silk bodice hadn't been sewn yet. I wanted to show the ties in the front.

This picture is too dark to see the details of the skirt but the color of the jacket is better. I didn't make the jacket, just the skirt.

The back of the first mock up. I ended up having to take some room out of the back and redesign the sides. My old pattern for a Regency gown and the lines of the one I was trying to recreate were very different. I ended up creating a new pattern for the dress.

The side front of the first mock up. I ended up having to widen the top front to get the gathers and pull in the sides to get the correct lines to match the extant gown I'm trying to recreate.
