Robe a l'anglaise

Published:

Description

I made this gown at a meeting of a sewing forum last weekend.
It's based on patterns of fashion (the striped polonaise). the fabric is too light to drape nicely therefor it's a plain anglaise, not a polonaise.
The skirt is a very nice wool-poly-blend with a soft touch. the cut is quite simple, just two times the fabric's width and a tunnel at the top to adjust it to the waist.
the Anglaise itself is a wool-poly-blend, too. It's partly handstitched, i.e. the pleating in the back, the back neckline, the shoulders and the waistline. It got boning in the center back and at the front. It's pinned close.

Sadly it's too big for me! It would fit a rather busty XL I guess. I'll compare it with your measurements.
