So far I haven't found a plaid fabric that speaks to me for Regency, but it's good to keep in mind. :) I would like to add more variety to my wardrobe, since it's become my main era of focus.

I know I do. This most famous example of a Regency plaid gown is one that I someday want to replicate for my wardrobe: https://fashionpluslifestyle.wordpress.com/2013/11/07/trend-ology-new-exhibition-to-open-at-the-museum-at-fit/p88-9-1_20131007_1_perfectlyclear/#main <br />I found a similar plaid in silk down in NC, but I am not ready to make it yet, so I passed it up.

Have you thought about making a sheer summer dress from your plaid voile? It would be very well suited to that style of dress, and then you'd be all set for any summer events too!Samanthahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16817358665338090584noreply@blogger.com
