isabelladangeloI remember a really awesome page on the Shinrone gown. It was done by a gentleman, I think (I could very well be wrong and apologize for that), that made exact copies of the remains of the dress in muslin and fitted them to a lady. He then filled in the "gaps" with some broadcloth. From that, he managed to extract a pattern and get a really neat interpretation of the gown. Does this sound familiar to anyone? I lost the page and can only remember the basic ideas of the recreation...
N'rmind. I realized I was confusing two different things. Sorry! Found what I was looking for though so all is well.
