Wow that is lovely!
How did you line the bodice but not the sleeves? When/how/where did you sew the lining in?
Thanks! The lining for the bodice was sewn in, by hand, after the sleeves were inserted (pleated and sewn by hand as well!). I also made a sort of corset, using the same lining fabric, with its own zipper, for extra security on stage (big breaths!!) and this is attached to the bodice top and sleeve openings only. The skirt has both an underlining of organza and a full lining.
