Danielle de Barbarac Completed Costume Pictures

Finally, I'm posting pictures of my Danielle de Barbarac costume I made for halloween last year! YAY!

These picture's don't include the arm bands because they're a pain to put on! They also need a little bit of work on them.

We took a few pictures of  me reading an old book and messing around with an apple.

I chose a French book since she lives in France. :)

Now when I look back on this costume there are so many things I would do different! My skills and knowledge of both historical costume and sewing techniques has grown tremendously.

I would also like to someday create an apron for this costume, but who knows if I'll actually ever do it!

Danielle De Barbarac (Part 1)

Last year for Halloween I decided to make Danielle's work dress from the movie Ever After. I made a mock up out of old sheets then bought the material for the real thing a few days after the mock up was finished and I had made the pattern.

Here's a picture of Danielle in the dress I made.

Here's a some pictures of the beginning of the shift.
