Now you can! Come make a late-Victorian bodice from 1830-1899. Y ou can wear it to Victorian balls\, teas\, SASS events\, or any occasion y ou desire. You can even use it as a base for a modern or fantasy gown! \nW e’ll start with a Truly Victorian bodice pattern of your choosing\, and augment it with authentic 19th century dressmaking techniques to make a cu stom gown just for you. We’ll cover measurements\, pattern adjustments\, fitting\, period sewing techniques\, trimming\, boning\, hand finishing\, and much more. \nIn the first session\, you will cover a brief overview o f the styles worn in the era. You will take measurements\, trace off the c orrect pattern pieces\, and then make and fit mock-ups. \nIn the second se ssion\, you will then move on to cutting and constructing your bodice and adding boning. We’ll finish out by concentrating on closures and facings . \nPrerequisites: Students must have made at least one dress or blouse fr om a pattern and know how to use a sewing machine. \nSUPPLY LIST:THE PATTE RN: \nA Truly Victorian bodice pattern from the Victorian era (1840 – 18 90s) These patterns have been carefully chosen because they have similar p attern pieces and come from reputable companies. Please do not substitute another pattern. \nTruly Victorian bodice pattern of your choice from the following list: \nTV 440: 1859 Pagoda Bodice\nTV 442: 1860s Ballgown Bodic e\nTV 443: 1861 Dress Bodice\nTV 446: 1860s Darted Bodice\nTV 447: 1863 Sh eer Dress\nTV 449: 1861 Revere Bodice\nTV 453:  1861 Raphael Evening Dres s\nTV 455: 1830s Romantic Day Dress\nTV456: 1856 Gathered Dress\nTV 400: 1 871 Day Bodice\nTV 405: 1872 Vest Basque\nTV 454: 1844 German Day Dresses\ nTV 402: 1872 Carriage Bodice\nTV 402: 1872 Carriage Bodice\nTV 403: 1872 Vested Bodice\nTV 404: 1870 Senora Bodice\nTV 405: 1872 Vest Basque\nTV 41 6:  1875 Ball Gown Basque\nTV 420: 1879 Cuirass Bodice\nTV 422: 1881 Dinn er Bodice\nTV 423: 1877 Two-Tone Bodice\nTV 428: 1880 Jacket Bodice\nTV 46 0: 1885 Cuirass Bodice\nTV 462: 1883 Tail Bodice\nTV 463: 1884 French Vest Bodice\nTV 464: 1883 Riding Habit Bodice\nTV 466: 1887 Alexandra Bodice\n TV 490: 1892 Ball Gown Bodice\nTV 493: 1896 Plain Bodice\nTV 496: 1896 Rip ple Jacket \nTHE FABRIC: (Some of which are available from Lacis) \n\nFabr ic\, as listed on your pattern.  Remember to buy enough to make matching skirts if you want them.\nLining: NOT modern slippery lining fabrics!  10 0% cotton sateen\, lightweight twill\, polished cotton or broadcloth.  Sa me yardage as bodice.\nMuslin (or old sheets\, etc) for a mockup: 2 yards or more\nPreparation: Please prepare all fabrics by washing or steaming\, if necessary.  However\, do not wash your muslin.  Press all fabrics.  Tape together print-at-home patterns if needed.  Read pattern instruction s. \n\n  \nWHAT TO WEAR: \nPlease bring the underpinnings that you plan on wearing with bodice. Historically accurate undergarments are a well-fit ted corset\, chemise\, petticoats\, and hoop\, bum pad\, or bustle\, if yo u will be wearing one is highly recommended.  Petticoats\, hoops\, and bu stle/pad affect the fit of your bodice\, so please bring them if you will be wearing them.  It is perfectly fine not to wear historical undergarmen ts\, but you must have all the undergarments you plan to wear at the first class and every class thereafter. Switching the undergarments will undo a ll your careful fitting work.  \nWearing modern undergarments instead is absolutely fine\; just be aware that a skirt made to wear with a corset wi ll not fit properly\, or at all\, without one\, and vice versa. So please make a decision and commit to it. Showing up at the second class session w ith a beautiful new corset will undo most of your previous fitting work.    \n  \nMATERIALS: (Some of which are available from Lacis) \n\nBone cas ing: 6 yards.  You can use seam binding\, Prussian tape\, ribbon\, bias t ape\, lining fabric\, etc.\nBoning: five yards artificial whalebone\, or y ou can purchase metal boning at Lacis during class\nThread to match all fa brics\nClosures as listed in pattern: buttons\, hooks/eyes\, hook and eye tape\, or eyelets for lacing\n2  yards ¾” – 1” petersham ribbon\nL arge hook and eye to fit petersham (or two dress size hooks and eyes)\nAny desired trimming\nOptional: 12 yards seam binding for Hong-Kong style sea m finish\n\nTOOLS REQUIRED: \n\nSewing machine\, with power cord and foot pedal\, plus bobbins and extra needles.
