Welcome to AJ’s Costuming & Ramblings!
My first Robe a la Francaise
I finally made my first robe a la francaise! I was supposed to have made this for costume college last year but you know how that goes. GBACG http://iq-trading.ae.org/iq-option-how-it-works had a Bal de Carnivale event this year which became my new deadline. I pulled out my half finished corset and got cracking.
I actually had a lot of trouble following the JP Ryan pattern so I ended up taking copious photos and writing up notes for myself for the next time I make one of these. Because… yes, I already have fabric for another one. =D If anyone else is going to be using this pattern, feel free to check out my notes… they might help!
I did manage to get a wearable dress by the event although there were a few almost all-nighters in there. (I’m getting way too old for that btw. LOL) The only thing missing for the Bal was the trim which Judy and I finished later for a lovely photoshoot at Gamble Gardens.

I re-wore my key lime pie victorian deposit iq option which I never got good photos of. The photos came out gorgeous but everything Jeff does looks good.
