Almost there. I think a bit too early for 1911. But, I do see where you are going with this. Remove ruffles, lengthen, "loosen" and widen the coat for more of 1911 fall dress something like this maybe: http://www.korthalsgriffonclub.co.uk/uploads/image/earlydays%20group%20of%20owners%201911.jpg I like it. Thank you for reminding me of one of my favorite periods.
