"Watteau" Tea Gown, c. 1880

Made from the Truly Victorian pattern TV432 out of synthetic satin brocade. A really fun gown to wear! I started it in 2006 and put it away for the last five years because I very rarely care to do Victorian. This year for Dickens, however, I dragged it out and put the finishing touches on it. Fabulous and comfortable, what's not to love?
