Velvet / Jacquard "Hunts"
This set of "hunts" includes a gored skirt of alternating
forest-green Fidelio velvet and jacquard, accented with cranberry
ribbon trim and a deep hem facing of cranberry satin. The
bodice is figured forest-green velvet with epaulets and "stomacher"
of jacquard, the latter laced over by cranberry cording.
Trim is also cranberry ribbon. Variations on this bodice
might include dags or a center panel that ties at the front sides
to cover the lacing, thus giving the bodice a more "noble"
appearance while preserving the ease of front-lacing for those
who have no lady-in-waiting to lace them up the back!
The bodice as shown costs about $750 and is a straight-seam design
(less fitted than others I make). The skirt is priced from
$900-$1050 without the hem facing and $1250-$1300 with it.
