Hello! I am not really familiar with the Regency era; however I really liked the dress that Jayne (Rosamund Pike) wore in the opening scene of the latest version of Pride & Prejudice (with Keira Knightly) she wears the same style dress a different points throughout the movie, one in pink and the other in blue. I have looked at the patterns sites that carry Regency patterns (Sense & Sensibility, etc.) but have been unable to locate anything like this. There is a dress with an overcoat (?) that has an under-the-bust piece to connect either side of the overcoat. While I have not seen the movie Sense & Sensibility with Kate Winslet as Marianne Dashwood, I have seen screen shots and she is wearing a similar style outfit, a peach & white gown on a picnic. http://www.geocities.com/mm_regency1/ss_mpwd.html
Does anyone know what the overcoat is called and what type of dress the base dress is? Thanks! Wendi _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list h-costume@mail.indra.com http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
