Almost done

I travelled to Camden on friday to fit the little girl. And the dress fit perfect. I had to stay at our directors house and quickly whip stitch the hem of the underskirt so she didn't trip. But that only took 5 minutes.

Our director posted some quick shots he took from the tv of what he filmed, and I am kicking myself that I wasn't there. I asked if they had a singlet top or t-shirt she can wear underneath and you can see it! I only found my 2nd fichu last night, so short of redoing the takes, I don't know what to do. I suppose I just have to let it lie, I can't do anything about it now. But I'm going to have to be there from now on, so I can hide any modern clothes and undergarments. I didn't want to push having to make undergarments for the little girl and making her get changed, I didn't want the mother to be uncomfortable at all. So the dress simply sat on top of her normal clothes.

Here are a few pictures, I won't include the one of her face, wouldn't be fair. I just wish I was there now! Can't do anything now though. But at least we have something filmed. I even offered just to get it all out of the way that I can be a stand in for the actress, just back shots and what not, as were the same height, hair colour and build. Has to have some perks being this odd shape of mine eh?
