So here are some ideas for this amazing silk taffeta that I have been holding onto for years. It is so pretty there is major pressure to do something awesome with it, and major fears of commitment. When I bought the fabric it was with the idea of making an Elizabethan style dress for the Renaissance Festival. I found a complimenting cotton velvet for the hem, which I have seen done to protect the fabric from the dirt. I like the look of it too. These are mock ups that I have done with my meager photoshop skills using photos of the actual fabrics and trim. These are all very historically based ideas. I will edit this again and put details in about the sources. The first below is Mary of Scots in her wedding dress.
