Mmmmmmmm Widow in Scarlet from Gallery Serpentine
I should stop drooling and just start sewing. I have a plain black satin version of the corset (front lacing only), a pattern and fabric for a chemise, and the draped kirtle skirt. Of course that doesn't stop me drooling over the more elaborate style of skirts. However given one look at the prices (and the construction on the skirt combo I have), I should really just knuckle down and give construction a go...
However there are two tents, 1 tunic and a sideless surcoat which have higher priority.
And I still haven't found a good source on nonstretchy black lace...
