Fun fantasy dress

This was just a fun fantasy dress to build. I had silver satin I had picked up in a bargain bin and then found a silvery sage upholstery that coordinated. After seeing "Man in the Iron Mask" many years ago I built this on a whim when my husband wanted to go as a musketeer to a Halloween party.

It isn't historically accurate and made on the cheap but I loved it anyway and we had a fun night. I couldn't pass up the chance to have some good photos made with it when my friend Kristen Wheeler of khphotographics.com was doing a photo shoot.

Let's see... cartridge pleated skirt, boned bodice, faked sleeves.
