Fabric: Black satin, white bridal satin

Black bodice features an attached bib, to create a cute pinafore effect.  Bib and ruffles are made from contrasting white satin, and go from front to back over the shoulders. They are attached with double ruffled white satin-over-nylon lace.   

Peter Pan collar has double ruffled satin-over-nylon  lace sandwiched between the layers and is attached with a bias strip made of black satin.  Hook and eye closure.

Full 8-gored skirt is serged, and  hand-pleated at the waist seam for a professional finish.  Bottom tier features a ruffle made from the black satin, with wide white lace on the hem, and narrow flat lace along the top edge.  It is attached with double ruffled satin-over-nylon black lace.

The upper ruffle is made from black organza, with narrow flat white lace along the top edge, with 1" trim on the hem, and is attached with black lace. It sweeps up to the center back and between the sweeps are yards and yards of ruffles.

A white satin self-lined apron is attached, with a white satin ruffle trimmed in white lace on the top edge and 1" lace on the hem, and is attached with the double ruffled white satin-over-nylon lace.  Two white grosgrain ribbon bows sit at the intersecting waist  seam.

Skirt will fit over a 100-yard crinoline (not included).

White satin sashes stem from the side seams to create a perky bow over the center back, to help create the illusion of a separate pinafore.

Full pouffy sleeves are hand pleated at the shoulder for a professional finish and elasticized at the upper arm for a comfortable fit.  Hems are finished with wide floral scalloped white lace. An organza ruffle embellishes the sleeve, with a white grosgrain ribbon bow at the bottom of the ruffle. 

Two barrette hair bows, and a choker (or garter) finish off this outfit.
