Young Elizabeth Swan

My youngest daughter has wanted to be Young Elizabeth Swan for halloween 2008 since halloween 2007. Here are some finished photos. My favorite part of making this costume was the 12 inch hem. Instead of cutting the extra length off as I usually do I decided to make hems in 2 inch increments. Everyone has commented on how authentic this looks for a period piece. I do have to agree. And as she grows I am able to let the hem down gradually so that she may wear this dress for hopefully years to come.
