Hello -
I'm trying to gather materials to make an 18th century gown. Does anyone
know where I can find fly fringe? It's the type of trim on this gown,
though hard to see:

Also, I'm working on a semi-replica of this gown:

I found some of this trim at the local Joanns but can't decide if it is
workable for the trim on this gown. The trim on the hem looks like it is
stitched on but the trim on the bodice looks like it is thread work.
Stitch it well down on top of ribbon or what. Ideas?

Any help appreciated!
