#0025 – The Queen’s Wedding

Based on Simplicity 8425 C from 1951

I mean of course I had to do a really classic 1950s inspired wedding dress for this one. This one from 1951 was perfect, it had an overskirt, it had long sleeves, a wide neck, and it was already drawn as covered in lace. I added the little capelet sleeves, changed the neckline and overskirt and the little bridal hat.


Now for a confession… with the Padmes of this project, when I needed a specific drawn costume detail… I copied them off my 2018 Padme project LOL. Look I already spent a whole month drawing the details of this wedding dress for the 2018 project, why do it again?? I just pulled those layers into this, reshaped them and filled in the gaps. Saved me a lot of time.
