My mom and I went to the Regency at the Fairmont Palliser a few weekends ago, and it was beautiful. The hotel is old and is stunning inside, and I loved seeing all of the costumes that people were wearing. I made dresses for my mom and I, and I have to admit that I cut a bit close to the deadline when it came to making them... I ended up finishing my dress just a few hours before we had to leave. Fortunately, I did not have to finish it in the car on the way there, which I have heard of happening in the costuming world! I used the pattern on the left for my dress, and the one on the right for my moms. Everything that I used for this project was stash, so it didn't cost me anything. This first one was made out of a sheet. It is gathered at the sleeves, waist, and neckline with twine, which can be tightened or loosened so that different people could wear it. We accented it with a white ribbon at the waist. In some of the pictures you can see the twine at the sleeves. The twine is hidden when the dress is worn. I will do another post about the dress that I wore, along with some photos from the evening at the Palliser.
