This is a quick side project. I'm still tweaking this pattern. I reconfigured the waist tucks and lowered the applied belts to basically the "real" waistline (belly button height). The fabric is Exclusively Quilters Paloma black-on-black bird and vine print; I got it on clearance as a bolt end and I love the design. Black lace trim on the hem, armscyes, and bound neckline. I'm almost done--I just have to sew on one more button, cut the buttonholes, and do a little seam finishing.
Applying the lace to the hem:
Hem faced with plain black bias:
Black faux-glass (i.e. sparkly plastic) faux-Victorian buttons at the waist:
Armscyes and bound neckline with lace trim:
