Mantua court dresses are wide, heavy and epic. Let's social distance like royalty.
It's historically challenged... definitely
*Disclaimer*
Although Germany is easing up on the lock down rules, we were taking all the necessary care by wearing masks where necessary and washing our hands all the time. Don't be a dumdum! Take care of yourself and others - wear a mask!
Historical references for the Mantua court dress were taken from our lovely Wikipedia because I am lazy and this is not about accuracy anyways.
What a perfect opportunity to social distance like royalty. Bam!
The pattern drafting for the Mantua was based on my basic bodice sloper and the picture for Janet Arnold's sketch for a Robe a la Francaise for her first book on patterns of fashion.
I did my best, but the gambiarra was strong in this one!
