S&S Version- Original historical notes and design notes included.
- Illustrations for first steps included.
- Overskirt step is included as an option; the pattern includes steps for a gown without an overskirt first.
- Different long sleeve pattern piece with undersleeve option included.
- No instructions for drawstring closure included.
- Only one neckline treatment included (other necklines are offered in my Neckline supplement).
- Appendix with instructions for making a Regency Era apron included.
- Pattern created with minimal ease for a closer fit.
- Cutting lines for A-D bust.
- Pattern pieces printed on heavy-duty bond paper for durability.
| Simplicity Version- Original historical notes and design notes omitted.
- Illustrations for first steps (pinning side back and stitching) omitted.
- Overskirt step is the only one shown for the ballgown.
- More authentic long sleeve pattern piece without undersleeve option. (The sleeve is the one I've included in my new Elegant Lady's Closet pattern.)
- Instructions for drawstring closure included.
- Two different neckline treatments (essentially, the day gown uses my neckline supplement for a different look).
- No apron instructions included.
- Pattern sized up slightly with more ease (for original ease, cut the Simplicity version a size smaller than you measure on their chart).
- All but the "A" cup cutting lines have been omitted, which means the bodice will be too short if you are a "B" cup or larger. To add the needed length, see the "DD" instructions HERE.
- Pattern pieces printed on tissue paper.
