Burda Style For people who sew
Description
This is a Robe Anglaise, polonaised, with matching petticoat and hand stitched stomacher, based on a pattern from Wingeo.
Material Notes
The gown is made from a printed Linen that I dyed rust. The lining for the bodice and petticoat is rust coloured cotton sateen. The vintage lace and cotton lawn of the fichu were tea dyed and hand stitched. The pleated ribbon trim was hand stitched. The gillyflower stomacher is linen, boned with nylon baleen replacement boning, and hand embroidered.

You are such an incredible inspiration. Your dedication and skill fill me with awe.
This is so beautiful. I love the flower and the rust coloured fabric was so worth the effort of dying.

I love the whole dress,especially the colour and the beautiful fall of the fabric on the sides of the skirt.I’m going to search for Wingeo patterns.

Thank you.
This is my first experience with this make of pattern. Not the easiest instructions to follow (a bit minimalist!), but a well-drafted pattern. They are available from Patterns of time as well as direct from Wingeo: a quick google should find them.

Thanks. Sometimes the handwork is easier than machine sewing.
