Costume improvements! Left is old, right is new :)
Now that we finally have a clear shot of Dolores’ petticoat thanks to her “Wyatt” season 2 skirt being torn up, I decided to remake it. I doubled the amount of ruffles and found much more accurate lace trims and more accurate colored ribbon. (I’ll be replacing the ribbon on the ruffles I took off and re-purposing it as the ruffle for the chemise) It makes the skirt so much fuller and a LOT more screen accurate silhouette. The swish factor is also amazing, and I can’t wait to pair it with the ruffles on the chemise <3
I also tracked down and bought the screen accurate corset fabric, very close (if not screen accurate) swiss dot trim that I’ll be pleating for the trim, a much closer to screen accurate silk velvet ribbon trim, and a screen accurate brass belt buckle. The only thing I regret is that I don’t have the space to dye the amount of swiss dot fabric I would need for the bodice and skirt :/ The linen I’m using is a pretty darn close color match, similar texture and very similar drape, though.
