Making My Victorian Ancestors' Dresses - 1880s Dress

I have a family album from the Victorian Era. I don't know who any of my ancestors in the album were, but I REALLY admire and adore their fashion sense. I don't have any existing dresses of theirs, those are lost to time, but since I can sew I figured I could attempt to recreate them. There are many different styles of dress in the album, from multiple decades in the Victorian Era and the Edwardian Era, but in this video I decided to create an 1880s dress inspired by my family's photos. Come with me on my adventure in recreating my ancestor's wardrobe!
