I can see your dilemma. The one on the left is conservative and a simplistic formal. The one on the right is more of what one would see on a ball gown. Have you considered the box pleating with the wider gold trim? http://www.metmuseum.org/toah/hd/eudr/hob_2001.472.htm
I would say it depends on what mood(?)/attitude you want to achieve. De -----Original Message----- If you would give me your 2 cents, i would be very pleased. I spended this day desiding wich trim to use on the red francaise dress i am going to make. But desided i have not yeat! On the left side i made box pleatings with a tiny gold trim in the edge. On the right side i have made the trim ruched and used a bigger gold trim. I think the left box pleated side is two boring, its flat, and not at all like i wanted it, the ruched one gives more shading to the silk. Is the gold trim two much? What do you think? http://www.my-drewscostumes.dk/sofie3-35.htm Bjarne _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list h-costume@mail.indra.com http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
