This wonderful two-piece consists of a short camisole with coppery uniform buttons, that is ment to be worn over a corset und a fishtail skirt with build-in petticoat, also decorated with coppery buttons.

As accessory I made a little cap and cuffs with coppery buttons.

While making the designs I thought a bit of Captain Frankie Cook from Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow ;-)

In fact this started as a test object, but I still finished it: A short bolero jacket with wide shoulders and puffy sleeves with laced hemline, at the front it is closed at the neck with a lovely metal hook.

Matching the bolero I made a very small bustle which can be combined with many clothes. It is closed with eyes and hooks on a waistband that has three layers of quillings in differnet lengths on the back.

This is a pretty not too bulky petticoat that doesn’t lay on a bit at the hips but it becomes wonderfully wide from somewhere above the knees to the bottom. The eye-catcher is the black satin band at the edge of the lowest tulle ruffles, and its kinda pretty if it sticks out under the overskirts.
