Thanks for including my work here on your fabulous post! It's nice to see there are collectors out there who appreciate historical accuracy and not just your run of the mill "Victorian" dresses. Victorian and historical do not go hand in hand in every case, as you have explained here. Love your blog!

I have always been fascinated by the history of fashions (used to sew and sell medieval costuming) and this was a wonderful trip through all of that.

You can see how fashion reflects how changes in history can abruptly change fashion norms. 1990s HA, you're hilarious!

And drastically too. I loved how they addressed this fact in Downton Abbey. Ranging from Sybil's harem pants to Lady Mary's hairstyle changes, it was a fun look back. Each subsequent decade had it's own look. Then the 1990's came and "casual Friday's" and it was all downhill from there LOL!

The time period she covers is actually Edwardian/Progressive era. Flohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17103011254105323818noreply@blogger.com
