Truly Victorian svarar:
"I would say the polonaise pattern, TV410. That has the basic seams that this dress has. The upper back pieces can be sewn together below the waist to get the fitted back. Reshape the hems to have the long points. The only other issue would be the lapels. But as the little stand collar does not roll with the lapel, this is a pretty easy change. Just extend the center front edge above the bust line a little bit and allow it to roll back. Find the point at the neckline where the fold starts and the collar ends, and then cut the remaining neckline in a straight line to the center front edge for the top edge of the lapel.
Does any of that make sense?"
