i might actually sew something

So I think I am going to make Mina's green walking suit from the movie Bram Stoker's Dracula.  Or at least something like it.

Pictures that someone else has kindly collected here:  http://periodmovies.blogspot.com/2008/07/minas-green-walking-suit.html

I know little to nothing about this time period, I just like the dress.  Is it even remotely

No help as it's not my time period either but dude - that is fabulous! I can understand it's siren call to you. I love the triple waterfall in the back. Way yummy!

Good luck - it's a gorgeous costume!

It's pretty good, although the back of the skirt is a little weird. I always forget that Mina wore some pretty nice things in that movie because the only thing I (and anyone else, for that matter) remembers is that totally non-authentic and highly dramatic red dress.
