'Killerton Gown' Evening Coat



I found a picture of a 1929 wedding gown in the National Trust collection at Killerton. It is a beautiful dress with lots of beading and a typical 1920s shape. I haven't used the shape at all in this evening coat, but I've taken the colours and patterns of the dress and have used them for this design.

The evening coat is intended to be made from a soft grey-blue velvety material. It is full length with large amounts of elaborate beading in translucent gold seed beads. The only fastening on the coat is on the bronze belt which fastens using large hook and eyes.

I hope you liked this design. For more designs, check back here next week, or visit my every-day wear blog: www.bronzedaledesigns.blogspot.co.uk/
