PICTURES!!!!

Sorry I've been very slow on putting up pictures of my costume.  The costume isn't done yet, I still have some work to do.  But you'll be able to get the idea.  I am having a dilemma I hope to solve once it's done & I can try it on.  The dilemma is to bum roll or not to bum roll?  The pictures have it so you can see.  It seems so big but it's dramatic.  Do I keep dramatic or lose big?  I know Renaissance gowns used them, I just don't know if it works this time.  What do you think?  Anyway, I still need to add my bodice jewelry, finish the little "flaps", put in grommets & sew the skirt to the bodice & hem the skirts.  To me, that is almost done.  After than I need to find some earrings & style my wig & pray to all deities that it turns out.  Anyway, on to the pictures!
