I like the fabric, but I am not so sure if I like the dress pattern :-

PM me if you would like be part of a Lion Party in the state of New York!

There's a brief shot of this dress at 3:52 in this featurette. Some new details—the sleeves are longer than I expected, almost elbow length. They're split on the outer part of the arm, and they look like they have some kind of adjustable tie or bow that's bunching the fabric up on that side.

just seen the movie, it is indeed a beeeautiful dress, and you get quite a few good shots of it too :D

edit: it's interesting to note the porcelain figure has given her yellow shoes! ;;)

I found a picture of the sleeve here: http://anna-p.net/photos/displayimage.php?album=lastup&cat=0&pid=9910#top_display_media

Here's another picture that shows her collar well. http://shareimage.ro/images/wxsz8qq2bu0w9e4usv4l.png

Susan's_look_a_like how did you find those!? Amazing!

Mrulockia that's a great sketch! Very true to the original (as far as I can remember!) Beautiful job.

That looks very good, Mrulockia. :D

RoseRed, in my initial viewing, I thought that the shoes were beige, but when I saw it again today, I think the shoes might be yellow. :)

Spoiler
The other English/American dress I was thinking of as orange... it buttons down the side with brown buttons (Uh, you can take my colour perceptions with a grain of salt) and has a v-neck with a little turned over collar. I have to admit, I really like the side button detail.

Adeona Google pictures. It took four or five searches to find them.

Mrulockia Great sketch!! It's beautiful and accurate as far as my memory serves me.

I think the stylists for McCall's Archival Pattern series were going for a Susan vibe here...
