Marchesa Notte Pleated Long Sleeve Chiffon Mini Dress

4] Having ‘cut out the patterns [for the dress] from the diagrams in the wonderful costume book of Viollet le Duc’, Nettleship (together with her team of makers) then crocheted a fine yarn formed from ‘ a twist of soft green silk and blue tinsel,’ sourced from Bohemia, ‘to match them.’[19] As both Comyns-Carr and Terry would have been aware, the strands of metal thread running through this crochet ensured the costume looked particularly magnificent in the ‘thick softness of gaslight with the lovely specks and motes in it.’[20] However, despite the eerie glow offered by the crocheted blue tinsel strands running through the costume, Comyns-Carr was concerned that the dress might not be ‘brilliant enough.’[21] Contemporary fashions, specifically the beetle-wing cases used to embellish elegant evening wear, provided the solution, and thousands of these shimmering wing cases were hand-sewn across the surface of the dress.[22] This, together with the further addition of ‘a narrow border in Celtic designs, worked out in rubies and diamonds’ at the hem and sleeve cuffs, completed the costume.[23] When fully dressed for the role, a wide metal belt encircled Terry’s waist, a veil (held in place by a circlet of rubies) covered her head, and two long plaits twisted with gold hung to her knees
