I'm asking this because I'm going to incorporate it into my costume design.BillvenDublashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04767789737652459409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7553172421381359137.post-36244534487242093482013-02-15T00:58:02.069+01:002013-02-15T00:58:02.069+01:00Hi!

We had decent historical patterns to go off of, but still had a hard time constructing the gown with the pleats attached. The pleats kept not hanging straight. What we finally ended up having to do was construct the gown, and construct a pleat panel separately that we then attached under a shoulder yolk, so that the pleats were a separate "cape"-like piece that hung independently of the dress and therefore stayed looking pretty. I shall have to try your method sometime and see if I have any better luck.LadyThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06931374709178593375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7553172421381359137.post-18074179670446782262009-08-28T12:13:42.747+02:002009-08-28T12:13:42.747+02:00Thank you lauriana.
