Marvelous Mrs. Maisel Dress from Season 1

I love watching the Marvelous Mrs. Maisel and I thought it would be fun to throw a party and create a look from the show.

I think I got pretty close with her “we got the rabbi” coat and dress. The fuchsia underdress is Simplicity 8591 (View C with sleeves from View A). I also omitted the gathered waistline and added pleats to the side and back to fit the waistline. I used a stretch charmeuse satin in dark fuchsia from Fabric.com.

For Midge’s light pink coat, I used Simplicity 8509 (view A) but omitted the lining since I was short on time. The coat fabric is 8 yards of Powder Pink Anti-Pill Plush Fleece from JoAnns. I used two layers of fabric basted together and treated them as a single outer layer. It was VERY thick for my sewing machine so I had to go very slow. I had as many as 8 layers of fleece under my sewing machine.
