This is what I think the uniform for the Slytherin witches would’ve looked like if they were going for the historically accurate
I found it while scrolling on Etsy if anybody’s wondering.

Next one up...
Tester slots OPEN for this dinner bodice pattern! The original has a 38” (97cm) bust and 32.5” (83cm) waist. Advanced sewists only, please (for the testing stage, at least) - this is a motherlode of textures and layers and a classicly Edwardian hidden closure, and I need people who know what they’re doing to test this one 😅 ! There’s a layer of lace flatlined to silver taffeta, and both of them plus the lining are all different patterns 😮💨. Mad respect to whoever made this 🥂.
As usual, pattern will go up on Etsy once testing is done - probably end of January.
