The 1770s-90s are a time of experimentation and transition in cutting and patternmaking techniques. In the first 3/4 of the 18th century women’s sleeves are almost always cut so stripes run horizontally across the sleeves. However, in the last quarter of the 18th c both grainlines are used, so stripes can run either way.
Like the Angelica, the Aidah is a fashionable late 18th century Italian gown. It’s not just a repeat of the Angelica though: it has a different front and back necklines, different back panels, and two piece sleeves with three length options instead of one-piece sleeves with two length options.
