Pink and cream





This gown was a lot of work, as each little poof was hand gathered and sewn down. The gown is cream colored taffeta. The tie belt, hat, muff and pelerine are pink velveteen. This is a dinner dress, and as she might be going out to dinner at friends I added the hat, muff and pelerine in a rosy pink tone.
Around the bottom of the skirt is a wide band of lovely lace, bordered on both sides with the little poofs. The hat and muff are trimmed with pink feather boa's. I really like the gown and it's endless little poofs. Something we would not do today, but I still like it here.
