Recreating Marianne's Regency Nightgown

I first saw Ang Lee’s beautiful adaptation of “Sense & Sensibility” on the big screen in 1995. It immediately became a favorite that I have watched countless times since its premier. I love all the costumes in the film, but the one that struck me most from the first viewing was Marianne’s beautiful nightgown/wrapper, which Kate Winslet wears in two key scenes. I’ve always wanted to make a copy but never seemed to get around to it until this year, when I hosted a livestream chat about the film. During the chat, several attendees asked if I would remake that gown and post a tutorial. That was the final push I needed to recreate this iconic gown, and I am so pleased I’ve finally managed to pull together all my in-progress photos to create this video and the tutorial on my site to walk you through the steps! For the full tutorial, please visit https://www.sensibility.com/blog/recr.... The tutorial contains even more step-by-step photos and instructions for reproducing this iconic gown. Many thanks to all my Instagram followers, who have cheered on this project over the last month. You kept me going!
