This is what is currently on my dressmaker's dummy, waiting for me to finish NaNo and work on it. This is what I hope to end up with. It's an 1850s day-to-evening dress. There's a plastron concealing the low neck, and then there are detachable sleeves. My sleeves will be long and tight to the wrist, I think, mostly because I have very little fabric.
Right now, I have it on my dummy over my 16th-century bumroll and about three yards of tulle pleated over that. The skirt is just pinned to the dummy, so that's not done. The bodice also needs to be fitted and I need a new 1850s corset. Also, a bunch of petticoats. So, everything! Heh.
