I love this thread too, and this time around I actually have an answer! My lady form is currently in the kitchen, where it's the best place to photograph for tutorials. She's wearing a paritial completed 1876 Dolman Wrap with an accordian pleated back trim, and wonderfully long cape-like sleeves. The whole thing is in a black medium weight wool, which I'm going to line with quilted sliver-grey silk.
Since is from an original Harper's pattern, there's tons and tons of trim yet to apply - and it calls for - four inch wide saddle silk fringe all around! Shooting photographs for a tutorial on how to sew up the pattern.
