So here is the project that I finished about a week ago but I'm only just now taking photos. It's basically a robe to wear around the house when it's too hot for a normal dressing gown. Or, if I just want to be fancy.
It's a floor length Italian viscose robe based on a medieval kirtle, or as my mom called it, a wizard robe. I plan of making a tablet woven belt to close it at the waist but for now I'm happy to have it swoop dramatically as I walk.
WW2 air warden helmet for scale.

/me waves the secret salute of “fancy kirtle sleeves worn just for hanging around the house”!
(in my case it's one of the first costumey dress I've ever made, and not up to my current standards as a costume, but definitely comfy as a hot, but not extremely hot weather dress)
