In this video I remake my 1780s Italian gown into a zone front later 1780s Italian gown with a separate stomacher. I first made this, my first 1780s gown in 2019, and later after learning more and losing some weight I made better fitting stays, and then this gown no longer fit me properly. So I remade it so that I continue wearing it! The original gown is made from thrifted silk curtains and the stomacher is thrifted silk-cotton blend satin leftover from the satin petticoat I made earlier. The gowns I show as examples of extant gowns in this style can be found here. https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/81105 https://museot.finna.fi/Record/musketti_tmk.M20:TMM9002?imgid=1 The original pattern for this gown is from the American Duchess Guide the 18th century dressmaking https://www.americanduchess.com/collections/books-and-patterns/products/american-duchess-guide
