I kept gathering bits, the braid, buttons, fabric for the skirt and pleated-collar blouse, a spats pattern and just the right buttons for them. But otherwise, I left it.<\/p>\n<p>Until the week before I was going to a Regency house party in fall 2021, and my communications with a certain company were sporadic about them shipping the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trystancraft.com\/costume\/2021\/10\/08\/several-store-bought-regency-outfits\/\">pelisse coat I&#8217;d bought<\/a> to wear at said party.

Something I&#8217;m usually loathe to do, but I just barely managed it, even though I had to set and re-set the damn sleeves three times.<\/p>\n<div class=\"tiled-gallery type-rectangular tiled-gallery-unresized\" data-original-width=\"640\" data-carousel-extra='null' itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageGallery\" > <div class=\"gallery-row\" style=\"width: 640px;
