#126 Ladies' Round or Trained Gown with High Stomacher Front

*Authentically Historical with Complete Instructions and Illustrations*

This pattern is a true gem, drawn from an actual gown dating back to 1800-1810 in the author’s collection. Known as a Bib or Apron Front Gown, it offers a historically accurate design with detailed instructions and illustrations, making it perfect for anyone interested in historical fashion.

*Key Features:*

*Authenticity:* The pattern replicates a real period gown, ensuring historical accuracy.
*Ease of Use:* Clear, complete instructions make it accessible for all skill levels.
*Versatility:* Multiple sleeve and bodice options provide various styling possibilities.

*Historical Notes:*

The gown features a unique opening on both sides of the front, with the entire front bodice and part of the skirt falling open.
The bodice ties together internally with strings and pins into place at the top of the front bodice.
The gown’s design includes ties that secure the front bodice and skirt, ensuring a snug fit.
The back of the bodice is shorter than the front, with armholes extending onto the back.
Long sleeves are designed to sometimes bunch up on the arm, extending to the knuckles.

*Styling Options:*

*Sleeves:* Choose from long, short, or 3/4 length sleeves. The puffed sleeve option can be very short for evening wear or longer with an extension for a full-length sleeve.
*Bodice:* Three front options include a darted bodice, a gathered bodice, and a very full gathered bodice, each with a drawstring at the top for fit adjustment.
*Skirt:* The skirt can be hemmed evenly for a round gown, with three train length options – short, medium, or long, adding up to 22 inches to the back.

This gown can be tailored for both day and evening wear, depending on the sleeve length, fabric type, and level of decoration. For more details and to purchase, visit [Laughing Moon Mercantile](https://www.laughingmoonmercantile.co....
