Sewing patterns

I would look smashing in this; although I'm not going to pay that for a fancy dress, I would like to find the equivalent sewing pattern to make one to match my hat for the next Malice tea. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

In the meantime, while I search, I am amused to find that Butterick has this, considering that Moresca sells that dress for $275.

I think I HAVE that pattern.. 15th Cent?!?! WHO do they think they are kidding?! It's closer to 12th!

That's why I liked their phrase "loosely interpretable". (Not that I know Rennie garb, I just figured they were taking some liberties.)

Yeah- but the Rennie Community does not (for the most part) GO for the idea of "Loosely interpretable"...
