1887 Bat Crinoline Cos80-1887
Cos80-1887; 1887 Bat Crinoline
21-piece pattern for the wings, corset bodice, flounced skirt, gloves, polonaise and fichu.
5/8" seams are given.
This pattern does NOT include pieces for the crinoline or optional bustle pad. I have given recommendation in the yardage chart as to sourcing patterns for these parts. There are also no provisions for the bat headdress.
I have rated this pattern advanced as it is very technically challenging. Technical abilities are required in corsetry, mitering double or single bias binding, knife-pleating, armature, draping and glove-making.
Build this costume over our 1886 corset pattern offered separately, see options.
