Costume Retake

I decided to retake the pictures of this costume, to show you where I got the idea from.
I also tucked the skirt up in the back, as I had forgotten to do that before. So please look at this page from the Godey's Fashions for 1875. The gown I reproduced is the blue one, second from the right.









  I hope this affords you a better view of this gown and also shows the origin of the design. Still looks really beautiful complete with her hat.
