Demi-polonaise, or polonaise à liberté

[chocolatepot]

I'm thinking of doing the curtain-along ... for a demi-polonaise! I'll probably feel like a chump because everyone else is doing proper dresses, but it would be pretty cool and not stressful. Because I wouldn't need to do bodice stuff, I could play around with cool trim. And it would need a mantelet, but they are not exactly difficult to fit.

Pictures: here, here, and here.

It's kind of the lazy option, but it has the advantage of novelty.
