Rococo

I have been a very busy bee this last week finishing on my 18th century dress for my Period Garments class that was due yesterday. Annnnnd here she is! She’s a 1770 Sack Back Gown.



This has been one of the hardest things I’ve had to do in my two years of WAAPA. I’m so proud of myself, I almost died of joy once I had sewn the last hook on.
