Cissy Channels Claire, A Costume Sized for Modern Cissy

Description

My repainted modern Cissy doll is just modeling.
This offering is just for the three piece costume of bustier, jacket and skirt.
So here is Cissy, modeling a mid-eighteenth century look that takes some liberties with history, but is so darn flattering, she could not resist. The costume is done in vibrant and beautiful colors, perfect for a costume ball, or just play time with your imagination. The aniline dyes necessary to achieve this depth of color were not invented until the mid-nineteenth century, so we're stepping into imaginary territory.
This was inspired by a verra verra popular TV series, set in Scotland. The embellishments are all my ideas, and should not be taken as historically accurate, just pretty, I hope.
The skirt is a woven cotton plaid in shades of blue and green, and where the plaid lines intersect, there are hues of lime green, navy blue, periwinkle blue and aqua. The skirt is fully lined in off-white cotton batiste, and closes in the back with a pair of snaps.
The bustier is white cotton batiste, self lined, with a frill of white pleated nylon trim, edged with aqua. Very close fitting with a back snap closure. The bustier functions as an undergarment, to show under the front lacing, without the additional bulk of sleeves.
The jacket is turquoise baby wale, cotton corduroy, fully lined with turquoise poly. There are 10 turquoise eyelets, five each side of the center front opening. The lacing is done in black faux leather cord, which will not unravel. The cord laces up the front in a zig zag pattern. The frill at the sleeve hems is the same as is on the bustier. The additonal trim is teal woven rayon openwork braid, and is applied at the bodice and sleeve hems.
Have fun with this one!
Postage is on me to the Continental US. Feel free to ask questions.
Thanks for looking!
