Description

Several weeks ago I decided to sew a civil womans outfit of the later 18th century.
Some parts of it are entirely handsewn, some are half hand and half machine-sewn and some are entirely machine sewn.
The skirt is made of very fine cremewhite cotton, which rather looks like a fine linen, the fichu is made of a similar fabric in purewhite.
The jacket is made of a reedgreen wool-don`t know what-mixture. It closes in the front with hooks and eyes.
The cap is made of white cottonbatist.

I tried to create a authentical look of a 18th century`s civil woman.
