MORGAN's 2024 HALLOWEEN Costume................. Marie Antoinette
French Rococo style.
All sewn with fabric from the sewing room, champagne and silver grey satin, with over 200 feet of lace trim..............50 feet of pearl trim, fabric flowers, ribbons found online and in storage....some were in boxes downstairs for over two years......... "We had a beautiful dream....." - Marie Antoinette
..... ruffles, ruffles, ruffles......two days to make the actual ruffles out of satin and lace. The pattern for this costume, was from Simplicity purchased online, a few years ago.
"I have seen all, I have heard all, I have forgotten all......" -Marie Antonette
"There is nothing new except what has been forgotten.." -Marie Antonette
Comfortable and stylish, for any chore on the palace grounds.
The hat is made from a cereal box, not usually readily available in Rococo times. This one is glued with flowers, pearls, trims, feathers .....held on with a wide satin ribbon.
"It is true I am rather taken up with dress; but as to feathers, every one wears them, and it would seem extraordinary if I did not....." - Marie Antoinette
The train has a few snaps that can bustle up while working....fashionable, lightweight....suitable for a walk in a garden...or feeding the birds.
