Making a Victorian ball gown has been one of my favorite historical sewing projects, and it's even better that this historical costume is for the Jewish main character of my favorite George Eliot novel. This Victorian ball gown bodice has been a dream historical dress for me and I've learned so much about how to sew a ball gown. I hope this Victorian ball gown tutorial helps you out with sewing historical clothes! The BBC Daniel Deronda movie is a great inspiration for historical costume, but it's set in 1876, which is a totally different era of Victorian fashion history than 1864-65 when the book takes place. Wearing a Victorian dress is a great way to put myself in Mirah's shoes, and getting to experience 19th century historical dress for myself through historical costume making.
