PER-FECT. Wich pattern? Janet Arnold? JP Rian? Another one? :D I'm curious!

How do you close the dress? Hooks and bones? or maybe just pins?

The whole gown is really onderful. I love it because it's simple and it perfectly fits you! :)

Thank you!
The pattern is Recontructing history Open Robe Anglais with Polonaise, slightly modified (without the pleating on the back).

For the closure in the front I used a hook and eye tape, I think that's the easiest way to make a closure for theses dresses.

I have this kind of tape too, for the moment I've only used pins to close my costumes but I should try this method next time :) I'm making a front zone soon, it can be a good occasion ^^

Thanks a lot for the answer, I didn't know the pattern you're talking about! I'm gonna check! :)

Oh, this is lovely! I love how CLEAN it looks - no frills or ruffles to detract from the drape of the dress. Lovely.
