MaggiRos,
I made a dress similar to this pattern in a shimmery dark red. I was going
to a Red Cross Ball in August, so I wanted it to look period with a modern
twist. In our university's collection we have a black lace dress similar to
this one.
Pastels were worn in the summer in the early 1920s.
We have some in the collection from the 1910s in nice peach shades. One has
green piping and is very lovely. We have another dress of ecru netting with
powder blue medallions. I would love to make a reproduction of that dress
one day.
