It would be nice to fill in the centuries between 1530 and 1900 with fashion examples.

Can anybody suggest a means of enlarging a condo to house all these costumes?

If I can afford it, I’m in!
I’ve got the fabric and pattern for my first bustle dress staring at me, giving me that look, the underwear are all underway, I’ve got miles of secondhand sheets for mockups and flatlining and a petticoat, and I’ve got a couple of simple projects in line between now and May… Time to start saving my pennies!

I would encourage you to join our next Bustle Day Dress class in May 2014. We spend a whole lesson on bodice fitting. 😉

Inspired by seeing all the lovely frocks on your blog. Although I’m gonna do it on a budget (yes a challenge but hopefully with a few compromises and some upcycling I can do it). Starting with making the petticoat and bustle pad. Daunted by the bodice so leaving that till last….I’m always terrible at fitted bodices..too may curves to fit. lol!

Ooh, good point!

I have very carefully laid plans and diagrams on paper as if I were planning an overseas military invasion. 😀

I think narrowing your vision to the garment that needs to be constructed at each particular phase is the best way to keep from being overwhelmed. For instance, I am not even going to worry about buying 10 yards of fabric for the actual gown until I complete the under garments.
