Then, since I had both Bianca and Isis standing in my workspace, I thought I'd try Isis' gown on Bianca to see how it would fit her. Not bad! Which of course meant taking some photos.....
I have in mind two future Victorian photo ideas, one with Rex and Bianca, and the other with my Victorian family. I wondered if the two sizes of women (FID and JID) could share the same clothes, so I'd only have to make one set of new Victorian gowns. You know, 'two birds with one stone'. Then, since I had both Bianca and Isis standing in my workspace, I thought I'd try Isis' gown on Bianca to see how it would fit her. Not bad! Which of course meant taking some photos..... The skirt and sleeves were a touch short, and the jacket needed to be pinned tighter in the back, but otherwise I thought it fit pretty well. So the pattern will just need some small adjustments to make any future Victorian gowns fit both body sizes.

Bianca looks lovely! I am beginning to think that she can wear anything from any period. She just has that look about her.

Bianca is so beautiful! You could dress her in a flour sack and she would still manage to look lovely. However, luckily for her, she lives with you and a flour sack will never be part of HER wardrobe :o)
