Not too bad! May I suggest putting a few growth tucks in the workdress to take it up and dropping the hoops? Its much easier to get around in a few petticoats and shorter skirts

That's a workdress? A handsome lass, indeed, Mr. Wadsworth, I'd be more effusive if it weren't for the code of the dirty old man: never let them see you drool.

It's a lovely all-purpose reenacting outfit, day to night. A young lady in proximity to the field would travel light and wear what she had -- in this case, borrowed finery, like Meg in Little Women!

The pinkish dress was fixed up some after she got home from the event. From what I have been told the skirt was himmed along with the hoop and petty coat. I think bluse was had some tucks in it also. I don't know a thing about dresses.
I learned that my neice worked her tail off working for one of the ladies sutlers. I may just have her working in my tent.
