I'm suprised I have any costumes at all
with all the CADD I have going on. So I had some fitting issues with the italian gown and decided to do something else. I fell in love with the elizabethan jackets I saw last year at costume con and decided to try one for myself. I wanted it to look upper class so I would still fit in with my friends that are copying portraits of nobles and queens, even though I was doing a less formal look. I used the red velvet I was going to use for the other dress and decorated it with black braid and Venice lace. I was lucky, because the "tudor tailor"pattern fit me with minimal adjustments. It went together rather quickly, which is good because I didn't have much time. I still need to finish the trim and put on the hook and eyes, but this gives you an idea of what I've been working on.
