1890's black and white pinstriped suit

More $1/yd fabric!  My friend Gina inspired this suit.  Hers had a vest and trim out of a red, black, and white fabric, but I couldn't find a cotton in those colors I liked, so went with plain black and white.  The skirt is the Simplicity 4078.



I also made a linen boater hat to go with this, which I have since sold

  1. Hi there, great job! Was just passing through doing some research for a steampunk outfit and wondering: is the jacket you made there the Truly Victorian 1896 ripple bodice? (http://www.trulyvictorian.net/tvxcart/product.php?productid=94&cat=6&page=1) Thanks!
