"This 1830’s grey “grisette” dress is made with mainly grey linen and black cotton sateen. The dress was entirely hand sewn in order to be as accurate as possible. The linen is delight in Florida’s warm climates and helps cool off even in 8 layers"

It is amazing that this dress was completely hand sewn. Each part of the garment is in almost perfect perspective with each other pieces of the garment. Amazing work, beautiful design. Very deserving of the award.

This is not a "costume", but historical clothing.
