So I was working on making this floor length but had a miscalculation and ran out of fabric for the final tier. Gotta make a trip to the fabric store in the morning to see if I can match it. Or maybe I can make the last tier white? But that makes me nervous if it’s floor length. What do you guys think?

Was browsing some petticoat related stuff and came across this cool blog entry. I love the details on the back of the hood. I've never seen that kind of pleating before and apparently it was on most cloaks during its time period.
