Regency gown and sleeveless
spencer ca. 1805-1810
Description
Open weave cotton summer dress with drawstring closure in the back. White cotton with swiss dots chemisette. Navy blue cotton sleeveless spencer with hook and eye closure in front. Straw hat decorated with three ruffle trim in light grey cotton and light grey satin ribbon.
The gown came together quite nicely. I only added a little extra to the front of the bodice and long undersleeves.
