Good afternoon!

Yes, it's me again!

I still want to make this:

I found a pattern in Acega (the very last one, on the folded sheet, if you have it).

My problem: every painting of the Spanish style of the time shows unpleated skirts, at least in front. Alcega's pattern produces a skirt that would have to be pleated (the front panels alone are 28 cm each at the waist, as indicated on the pattern, and the back panels are even wider).

What would you do? Follow Alcega, or follow the portraits of the period?

Heeelllppp!
