Bustle pattern for Ellowyne Wilde of Tonner incorporates waist shaping by my pattern Garter yoke dress for Ellowyne

This is about a dress without the sleeves or the undergarments that support the structure that’s why I keep the price minimum , it still keeps the basic structure though
(I’ll have more ellaborate and with sleeves versions in the future with detailed instructions for undergarments as bustle cage
Those will have a more corseted feel in torso as I will make the increases and decreases more based on where they would be in a corseted ansemble than following the algorithm of modern super fit which follows the body)
This one is still very acceptable because the shape of all fashion dolls looks already corseted fashionably and following it the result it still looks appropriate but it can be done better . This pattern though can be used as a base for Victorian 1968-1973 historical styles without looking inaccurate but also modern ball gown , wedding dress or goth cosplay gowns for Ellowyne , steampunk styles as it also looks modern and fit to body as a nice medioum between heavy corsetry and not at all (the latter is impossible look for fashiondolls they are all molded like they are corseted)

Remember just some crumpled cheap decor tulle put as a butt pillow in the back of the dress can give the impression of a busstle cage under the dress
Here the dress is photographed without any support or undergarments and still holds a nice level of structure due to the weight of the yarn (fingering) compared to the size of the doll, dolls don’t need as much understructure as humans obviously .Happy knitting !!!!

NEWS about this one
1. Decided to not add sleeves for the Ellowyne bustle dress because the low neckline is a dinner/ball/afternoon gown thing and there sleeves are very short or non existent those will be to othert projects but I’ll add a decorative trim option a yoke lace part as an option and also some embelishments those will be added as a second download without price increase those who have purchase it will receive the extra pattern for free , the daydress (with sleeves) and more afternoom and day bustle dresses will be new projects mainly because I want to change the place of decreases and increases in torso to fit the “imaginary” corset of the times and not specifically Ellowynes body.
anything else will be a surprice
