This is the third video in a series where I refashion and old, failed Regency-era costume into something new. This time the dress will actually remain as a dress but I'm giving it a glow-up: new sleeves, a fuller skirt, and a much needed fix to an ill-fitting back. I'm also finishing up an old unfinished project to go with it: a pink silk bodiced petticoat.
