Well, this was my first attempt at making a costume, and although it
is no where near being historically accurate, it was a lot of fun, and
even got me first place in the Halloween costume contest at the mall I
used to work at.  (Big shout-out to all my Small World friends!)  

It closes with *gasp* a zipper (I am so ashamed...) and is actually an
under-dress topped off with a bodice that has a skirt made from some
silver lacy stuff.  I do have to give it credit for getting me hooked on
costuming!
