Ooo, lookit the one that's two down from Katharina... it's black with a gold-coloured placket and all those PEARLS!!! I want to make that one... the hat's a little wacky, but oh wow, the black--is that velvet? Pearl work all down the sides, and more beading on the gold top of the placket... Yum... :)

From the left of the skirt it appears to be appliqué with embroidery for tacking down the edges and details. This would make sense to have the appliqué instead of reverse appliqué as the use of scrapes was more frugal then cutting out a piece so that the background shows through. I had seen one painting with what appears to be reverse appliqué but the cutout pieces was used on the garment elsewhere. _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list [email protected] http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
