These are my daughters seven years ago. We'd been invited to a Georgian-themed wedding. It was held in a Georgian house on an old estate in south east London and was fantastic. I also made the bridesmaid's dress, which was the same pattern as my elder daughter's dress but in gold and blue silk. It looked completely different. I made my own too.
For this month's challenge I thought I'd use a 1920's jacket pattern I have. I have a feeling that the pattern itself wasn't created in the 20s (it's by Vogue - 'Marcy Tilton wearable art') but it is definitely made along those lines. All my other 'old' patterns are really historical reproduction patterns, including an amazing one for a corset and petticoat and drawers - the saloon gal look - but I'd have to order the busks and boning from America, I suspect, and that might take too long to arrive. So... here's the pattern:
