If you were wondering.....


about that deep royal blue gown underneath the fur trimmed jacket? Well, here it is. While this style is a bit later then what I have been making for Frances, I just had to create at least one of where the fashions were evolving too.
  A deep royal blue silk, lined in a paler blue, its buttoned down the front, from high collar to hem of skirt. The back has loops of royal blue satin ribbon trimmed with white vintage lace. This style gown has a small train in the back. She also wears a little lace and ribbon cap, when she goes out visiting. Because of the train in the back, it would not have been worn walking, and allowed to drag the ground.
