Pirates of the Caribbean: Gold Dress Bodice Done


Here is the finished bodice, at long last! I just have to tack down the silk bias tape that faces the neck--but it has to be done by hand (blech!) so I'm taking a break for tonight. The sleeve turned out closer to the look of the original than I thought it would--you can't see it in this photo, but I pleated it in the back like the original appears to be. The trim is just pinned on so I could see how it would look. Now, I have to do the panniers so I know how to level the skirt as I attach it.
