I din't know anything about the Color Association, but I'm very familiar

color trends. Well, they DO go around thew world, it's the forecasting they
claim .

I've recently done a c1776 robe anglaise, which is ~20 years before your dress,

I'm going to second Bjarne's vote; I like these tabs the best, and think
that the bodice needs tabs.

Of course scientifically, no one even knows if we see the same colors as
others. My brain interprets a certain wave length of electro-magnetic
energy as
