My guess would be that the client is wearing her shift, stays and petticoat, and that is her dress which is discarded over the chair, but she may be being fitted over the dress, and in any case, the image doesnt provide enough petticoat information to help me much: The image in the 1811-18 editions of The Book of Trades shows a clearer view of stays, and what appears to be petticoat with a tucked hem under her stays, but could be a chemise, but which doesnt provide much construction information in any case: There is this 1813 fashion plate, which also either shows a long chemise, or a petticoat worn under her stays: The lack of mention of a petticoat, when all other garments are listed, and the matching trim on chemise and hem, would indicate they were the same garment
This exquisite dress features delicate sheer long sleeves that add a touch of allure, while intricate embellishments create a captivating sparkle
50% Hours to complete: Around 3 First worn: Not yet * which has actually been cancelled, for reasons outside of my control (much sadness, but it does give me more time for exciting Scroop things, so all is not lost)
