Second Fitting for the White Queen

Today I conducted the second fitting for the White Queen in the top Fabric. Zoe has once again gracefully stepped in as my model as her measurements are exact to my actress. We have left the sleeves out for the time being as we are going to fit these after, my main worry is the skirt and that there is not enough material in the skirt.

Notes from Fitting:

• Add room in the arms (follow pins)
• Fix hemline at 28cm off ground all the way around the skirts circumference 
• Separate bodice and skirt into two separate garments
• Add more fabric into the back of the skirt 
• Drop waistline to 1cm off hemline (follow pins)
• Make more roses for surface decoration 
• Take darts in 1cm
