It is that time, I have to plan making not only my first bustle gown,
but probably best if I get a bustle era ball gown knocked out of the
way since I do not have one. What is a good pattern to start with? I
keep finding a pattern on ebay called Buckaroo Bobbins and it is a
pattern for a polonaise and bustle skirt but I am not sure if it would
be a good pattern, it could be just as unathentic as the one or two
incredibly inaccurate patterns produced by the large companies. The
polonaise gown looks easy enough but with out any experience it may be
alot harder than thought to be. Would it be best to try out that era
first with something simple to get the feel for it? When I do make the
ball gown, it isn't going to be an easy 1-2-3 peice like my others to
date so maybe if there are any bustlers out there you could share some
hints on how to get started and what to avoid/try. Goodnight and
thanks, Justine:)
