Do you love or hate the 1830's? It's probably one of the most polarizing eras of historical fashion. So let's make a day dress and see what all the fuss is about!

I'll walk you through the process of making this dress in this video, and hopefully by the end of it, we'll discover whether the 1830's is worth wearing!
