Thanks. I’ve just started ‘draping'(?) my paper pattern. I’m not sure how big the armhole should be to make it accurate? At the moment is fairly small as I reasoned its easier to take away than add back in.

You can find lots of antique spencers with darts in the front.

I’m thinking of making a spencer from scratch using my ‘sloper. And how to get that lovely diamond back was confusing me. NowI se you have a shoulder seam and that back seam to make the ‘diamond’. I was also wondering if using darts was acceptable on a regency spencer?

Thanks! Yep, only 6 pieces plus linings. The sleeves were gathered but look a bit like pleats due to the stiff nature of the taffeta.

Six pieces total not including lining and waistband? Two front panels, back, two sleeves, collar? Did you do a box pleat on the sleeve cap? Looks so perfect for the Regency era!

I think my heart stopped a little when I came to the collar pic–so rich!
