If you're interested in slightly later Victorian, there is at least one
early bustle era (about 1870) extant sheer solid pink (and lace) dress - I
don't know where I found the picture from though... it reminds me of the
Tissot painting "Too Early":

I would think that 8 meters would be enough to do such a dress, if you
were careful.
Good luck!
