A Natural Form Walking Dress

I made this dress recently. It's not based on any other dress in particular just a mishmash of ideas I took from fashion plates of the time. It was made from patterns from Truly Victorian.

At Phoenix Comic Con. I think that I need to take a little of the fullness out of the vest. I also think I might cut the bottom hem of the jacket so that it is slightly higher.
