Samples of Outfits Made from My Titanic/Teens Patterns

From the 1910s Tea Gown Pattern...


Click for larger images.

Here is a dress made from my 1910s Tea Gown pattern, which was inspired by the film, "Titanic." Short kimono sleeves show the oriental influence so popular at the time. The multi-layered skirt flows from the empire waist and flutters becomingly over a heavier skirt lining. A crushed silk sash makes a dramatic contrast. This one is ethereal with an ankle-length skirt.

Here is another version done in layers of Copenhagen and Royal blue with white inset and lining.

This "Titanic" recreation includes extra details at the bodice inset to get even closer to the film
gown's look. The waistline sash was also doubled to get a multicolored effect.

This dress features just one split overskirt of peach. You can add or subtract skirt layers to your liking!

This is the pattern that won the 2004 Young Designers' Contest. I hope to have it available in sizes 6-26DD by late December of 2005.
This dress has a kimono-style bodice with an optional inset (see left and center photos).
The overskirt can be made in a coordinating or contrasting color (as shown at right). The pattern is very easy to make and so comfortable to wear!
