Beautiful hat and an excellent job! I wish I could see the whole outfit on the lady just like you do! :-)

Thank you. :) I used original Victorian fashion plates to determine the basic shape and the decorations. It was fun. :)

Thanks! Can’t wait to see her in it. It’s for the same lady I did the other Victorian project for, and the corset.

If anyone wants to see how it was constructed, the full story was in Dress Diaries on LJ: It’s in three parts.

Thank you. :) The lining took a while to work out, and at least two failed attempts! But I got there in the end, and am quite pleased with the way it came out.
