The back of my finalist entry to the Golden Shears competition. My design was inspired by 1870s university jackets and riding coats. Special thanks to @the_bearded_tailor for all his help with this project!

Here's a cheeky lockdown 3 project...

My very own regency stays and chemise for when @jafestivalbath is on again. Now I just need to make the rest of the ensemble once fabric shops are open

I waited a little while to take pictures of this on, due to my mullet looking pretty dire prior to this 😅

Corsetry supplies: @sewcurvysupplies
Pattern: @redthreaded

I love the shape of the skirt so much! Underneath is a cage crinoline and net petticoat
