Centuries-Sewing Historical Costumes and Clothing

Labyrinth Costume Research

I’m plotting a Labyrinth ball gown costume and took a few screen caps to use as references. Some of the skirts seem to have net petticoats underneath, others none at all. The bodices on the gowns vary from princess seamed to fitted panels with draped layers. Shot silk looked like the main fabric, along with various damasks an in one case some type of vinyl.

Now I just need to sketch some ideas.

    That’s so cool! I also made a Labyrinth ballgown about a year ago (blogged about it here: http://venerablefashions.blogspot.com/2011/12/old-costume-labyrinth-ballgown.html)

    I also took about a million screencaps if you want to see them.
