I love this dress, and with the right accessories a person could wear this and it would look completely modern.

I think so too!

You make alterations look so easy! And the dress is lovely. I'm glad you'll be able to use it outside of costuming as well 😃

Thank you so much!

I belong to the Edwardian Society of Oregon. I am also a lady of "size" very much like yours. So I appreciate you doing the step by step for this dress. You are right it works well for modern day and the green is gorgeous. Just last weekend our group had a meeting to discuss 1910 wardrobes and what a lady might need to be "fitted" out. Under things, day dresses (like your's) sunday best, evening gown, picnic dress and a travel suit. I think I'm going to use this pattern to do my day dress. Thank you again, you did a great job. btw, really wished you lived close enough to play with our group, I think you would enjoy our outings.

Thanks for figuring out that “lower sleeve” piece. We don’t see many sleeves in that style anymore. As rare as a gusset.

Adding a pleat was a brilliant fix! That kinda thing usually happens to me when I’m still sewing after midnight- or unwell. I applaud your clever solution in the moment, as I usually give up, go to bed, and leave it for Tomorrow Me to invent a fix. Hope you are feeling up to par again!

I love it! I've recently started looking into integrating some 1910s clothing into my everyday wear. Lower-calf is a more practical skirt length, and I have sensory issues with make-up, which is more-or-less required for the 20s-50s eras (well, for adult women at least). Fashions from 19-teens has got to be one of the fastest moving decades in history, and finding reference works is really tricky. Victorian and Edwardian, easy, 1920s to current day, a doddle, but that 'missing' decade (which has at least three distinct 'looks') is much harder to pin down. This dress will defiantly join my queue, it looks pretty easy to make and easy to wear, and I like the idea of making a few chemisettes or vestees (which will help keep the dress clean), before trying my hand at the full lingerie blouse/waist.

I missed this pattern test, but I just did her 11 gore 1908 skirt and it’s darling. I love how this dress looks on you!!

You did such a beautiful job with this! I absolutely adore clothes from this period, and yet have never tried to sew any of them. Why is that???

Do you recommend a good pattern for the 1940-50s era for a house dress? Or even a farm women's chore dress?

The Scroop Patterns Robin dress is a good mid-century style! Ora Lin Patterns has the Sophie dress, which is more Victorian/historical looking that doesn't have a defined waistline, but has a tie belt.

1917-18 is one of my favorites. Yours looks great. Seersucker fabric?
