A dancer in my group is making a v-neck regency gown and is using the La Mode Bagetelle pattern. Has anyone here seen this version made up? She has told me there is a huge overlap I don't have the pattern in front of me. The only V necks I can confirm on dresses of this period are made with what we now call a surplice wrap front, a variation of the apron front or low stomacher front gown. That is, the bodice pieces lap over and form a V, and then the skirt is tied on over. I don't believe LMB is cut as a true stomacher front, is it? Ann Wass **************It's Tax Time!
