Scarlett's Portrait Gown
For not having been made into an actual gown, only seen in a portrait in the background, this gown has become a fan-favorite.  Following the trend of multiple-piece gowns, this gown will be made as two pieces, a long, slightly trained skirt of nine gores, and a separate boned bodice closing in the back with hidden hooks and eyes with eight to twelve hooks and eyes connecting the bodice and skirt.  Six self-covered buttons decorate the bodice ruching.  An elliptical hoop skirt is needed for the same look in the portrait, but a standard hook skirt will suffice.  The gown will be made in your choice of silk or cotton for the same price.  Due to the design, a corset is not neccessary.
