Fabric: Not Yet Found and Bought the Black Pinstriped Fabric (Hard To Find)
Status: Not Yet Started, Need to Order the Patterns
The Boarding suit is not one of my favorites of her outfits but I included it to be made because it is apart of her wardrobe and I feel that I need to make it because her outfits would not be complete with out it.
The only things that I really like from this outfit are: the big purple hat that she wears with this outfit and I like how the front looks with the buttons (very elegant) and I like how the outfit curves in the front and finally I love how this outfit shows off the figure off very nicely (with the help of a corset of course)
The things that I hate about this outfit are that this outfit is too formal for everyday ware and it looks like it might be too tight to walk in and even move around in. It might also be hard to get into this and out of this by yourself without some help of course!
The only other concerns that I might have with this outfit is that it will be hard to find the pinstriped fabric and if I do find the fabric it might be on the expensive side. Also, to get it like the movie outfit I have to turn the skirt pattern around so the one slit originally on the pattern from the back side is on the front and the two front slits that are in the front originally is in the back that way I can correctly make and place the curve on the front of the outfit and I think that might be a little confusing for me.
I think this outfit would be good for a horse race, or something to wear during the fall/winter months since the fabric would be heavy.
