For inspiration…My current BFF. Extant 1890s Bridal Chic complete with original bust padding. American made…she’s a jewel. 😄
Victorian (to 1901)
Back to the Ball!
Fashionably attired to party like it’s 1899…it was so nice to attend the Social Daunce Irregulars Ball again!
Getting Ready For The Ball…
The complicated fin de siecle corset era has to be my bestest favorite…that’s what gives that black sequined gown it’s shape. I need more of these in my life.
The Gray Dress
Why the grey dress nonsense?
It’s the answer to the: “Why are you always so fancy?” question. 😄
So… I found this simple grey dress from the Museum of Bath website (with sadly, no provenance) and did a little research. A video is upcoming on our YouTube Channel about some fun information we found about “simple” gowns…that really aren’t that simple.
Getting Ready…
OÂ f course I’m sewing the night before a Tombstone trip, why break with tradition, right? Countdown to Helldorado…
