Underneath the half robe will be a round robe (or round gown) like the one that is presented in Norah Waugh's book, The Cut of Women's Clothes.

1795-1799 Half-Robe
Plans are in the works to make a regency-era half robe. Out come my two favourite books - Nancy Bradfield's Costumes in Detail and Janet Arnold's Patterns of Fashion 1. Both of these books are indispensable to a costumer's collection.
Underneath the half robe will be a round robe (or round gown) like the one that is presented in Norah Waugh's book, The Cut of Women's Clothes.

Snowshill Costume Collection
I have organised a small costume study tour to the Snowshill Costume Collection with Althea MacKenzie on Thursday 19 September 2013 and have room for a few more to join us. Once your name is on our list, please let me know if there are any items you particularly want to see in the collection at Berrington Hall in Leominster, UK.
I have found a few items online at http://historicalcostume.wordpress.com/ and there are more in the book, Costume in Detail.
Registration for the tour is by paypal to garden@earthlydelights.com.au - £45 pounds pays for private transport but does not include entry or refreshments. We leave Bath at 8.30am and aim to return by 5pm, traffic allowing.
