The skirt edges were finished with a narrow continuous bias placket that was first machine stitched to the slashed skirt opening then folded to the inside and hand slipstitched into place. Then a good press!

A very helpful article!
The 1813 white evening gown, with the ruffle neckline, is very similar to a voile dress with a ruffle neckline I am trying to recreate from a 1810s portrait, altering the Sense and Sensibility pattern. How did you finish the skirt opening back? The pattern I have uses an overlapping placket, but how to did you so nicely finish the edges for a dress that simply meets in the middle and is tied with ribbon?

Appreciate your comment, Lydia!
I haven’t come across Regency gowns with lacing closure, only corsets of the time, which were indeed mostly spiral laced, but corset examples exist, too, where cross lacing is seen. All the dresses I’ve seen in my research have the closures I’ve mentioned here. But neat to hear of gowns with lacing were in those countries!
