Fashion Plate Friday with Something Added

This French plate from 1812 is one of our very favorites. Furthermore, one of our favorite creations was inspired by this plate.  We started with a base from our Ophelia pattern with a few brim adjustments.  We used sinamay fabric to achieve the flipped up brim with great success.  The ivory silk was gathered flat and then placed on the bonnet and trimmed and bound with red silk taffeta bands.  Twelve feathers were hand curled and sewn using period techniques to achieve the full look of the plumes.
