What’s your Sunday look like? This is mine. #staymaking #18thcenturydress #historicalfashion #17thcenturydress

I've been watching wig tutorials for weeks at this point. When will I have the balls to actually attempt to make a wig? #wigs #18thcenturyhair #17thcenturyhair

Playing around with the sample yards of silk I purchased to see how they play in the light… and a shot of the pretty shape of the back of the bodice (my sixth mockup!) I prefer the taffeta, I think (on the right side)… what do y’all think? #historicalcostuming #fetesgalantes

Does anyone know what this type of hairstyle is called? I love it. All of these paintings are late 17th century. There's a similar 18th century style called the Hedgehog but this isn't quite that. #historicalhair #17thcentury #historicaldress #historicalcostume #europeanhistory

Do sketches from last year’s #swordtober count?

Last night, I took mock-up number 3 of my robe de cour experimenting and decided to chop it up to create a new pattern that reflected an earlier smoothed stays bodice. I’m insane. #sewingexperiments #historicalcostuming #18thcentury #17thcentury

Mood: Contemplating the void while simultaneously marveling at the inexplicable power of regeneration.

I’ve finally resumed working on my robe de cour mockups… alterations have been made, tabs have been added. Also, check out the tallest candles in all the land! Hehe #18thcentury #18thcenturycostuming #fêtesgalantes

Behold! A line drawing I made based on #MauriceSendak 's Really Rosie book illustrations. I saw the exhibit in Denver this past weekend and it was so incredible. I cried. The Nutcracker section was my favorite. I grew up dancing and adoring that rendition! #sketch #18thcentury

Some of my favorite photos by Lizabet Roberts! Taken outside Ulverston in the UK. Wearing the Llangollen vest and the Westley trousers.

Just finished hand sewing this 18th century inspired shirt and I am so in love.

Which one?? I can’t decide. #silks #historicalcostuming #silkbaron

You ever wake up and find yourself missing your favorite middle-aged pirates who love each other so much that you end up rewatching @kazrowe.bsky.social 's fabulous deep dive into the real Stede and Ed for funzies? #ofmd #gentlebeard #pirates

Yesterday, I played around with a base pattern for my robe de cour bodice... and then I drew all over it, pinned it, tweaked it until it looked like the monstrosity in the first picture and now I've harvested the first bodice's bones and mockup two is forthcoming! #historicalcostume #robedecour

Look at what just showed up on my doorstep!!! Eeee! I'm thrilled! I've had Patterns of Fashion 1 for literal decades but 5 and 6 are now in my clutches and I can't wait to dive in! #patternsoffashion #historicaldress #historicaleuropeandress
