I've read all that I can find on the gown. I have that book ordered so it's
on its way. I should have checked your site more. The costumes/garb are
wonderful. The photos look as if someone opened a door to the past. Totally
a cottage weekend for a group of friends.

Hi Becky,
Well it is not baroque, and not quite rococo neither, its the time from
1770-80, also called Louix XVI, or neo classical style.
For a pattern, well its a little difficult. If you meen a ready made
pattern, ready to cut, i dont know, but if you know a little about pattern
making, you could use Jean Hunnisets book Costumes for Screen and Stage.
The 2nd vollume.
In this you will find both a corset, pannier (hoop frame) and a robe a la
francaise like the pink dress.
Bjarne

Is this Baroque or Roccoco time frame? I would like to make a Mother
Ginger costume with the same shape as the yellow and pink gown. Does
anyone know the year span for this gown? I'll need to buy a pattern if at
all possible.
