Finally...

Costumers Guide put up photos of the Duchess gown I've been in love with since I first saw the film in cinema.

I LOVE how the stripes are in the back...looks amazing! :)
Looks like it closes with hooks and eyes in the front:

Lovely hand top stitching! (Click on the picture for larger image)
*sigh*...I have fabric to start a dress inspired by this one but it isn't striped so I wont get to do the cool back. I think it will be lovely though...I need to get going on that! But my sewing room is in desperate need of some organization I think before I start any more projects.

  3. This is stunning. Daring with vertical stripes running down the sleeves.

    Good luck with the tidy up - you never know what you might rediscover.
