Dress in triplicate


The Marie Antoinette dress was constructed for Miss Patricia Racette in both black and white, and an identical white dress was built for her dancer double.

Construction


The workload of the three dresses was split amung our entire team. I was responsible for construting all sets of sleeves, the black and white skirts (both under and overskirt), one white wateau, all three panier extentions, and the majority of the bodice and sleeve trim.

Understructure


Marie Antoinette's corset was costructed by Anne hua, her panier from Period Corsets and the panier extention was built by myself.
