Stanzi got to me!

The Victory Ball at November Crown is an Italian theme, right? So I decided that maybe I might make an Italian dress (because I can't help conforming to a theme :P)

I remembered some silk I bought earlier this year and pulled it out to see what colours I had. A silver I have reminded me of a portrait I saved aaaages ago because it really appealed to me. From memory it was Florentine with guards etc.

When I dredged it up from somewhere in my old computer's hard drive it was rather different, and unlike anything I had seen before. Upon asking around the interwebz, turns out its Spanish!


I should have known! :P




















I still can't find any pictures of dresses similar to this so I can look closer at the bottom of the bodice, skirt and sleeves D: I guess I shall consult Hispanic Costume ASAP :D
