Proof:

I think I'm going to pipe the neck band pieces next. It's tricky to deal with them because their length on the original makes such a wide neckline ... but that's period. I'll probably be wearing this with my 1860s corset, at least, which means that I don't have to rack my brains over how did they keep their corset straps out of the way??? like usual or make a chemisette/pelerine. I figure it's better to just go with the original lengths for these rather than to try to alter them and probably screw up the entire thing.
