Now, don’t be alarmed if you
can’t remember Eowyn wearing this dress. That is because she didn’t.
I completely designed this dress myself based on the style of the dresses
that are worn by Eowyn. It's pattern after the Green Gown and the Funeral
Gown. There are two completely different dresses here. The underdress
will be made out of white crepe and the overdress will be made out of
lavender crushed panne velvet. The underdress will have silver vines
as trim (hence the name "Vine Dress"). The over dress has
the big sleeves and the front portion of the skirt lifts up and attaches
at the side like the Green Gown. I will have pictures as soon as I make
some progress.
Here is a scan of my drawing of
the design of the dress...
(Just so you know, the odd looking
arm on the left is a cutaway showing the underdress sleeve.)
Here is a picture of the Green
Gown so you can compare the design.
