COMMENTARY

costume college Yay! My Costume College registration packet has arrived! They’ve got some great programming planned, although of course the class I REALLY want to take (making a bustle-period buckram hat) overlaps with the class I’m teaching.

I’m trying to figure out what to take for my limited attendance classes (you get to pick four; everyone gets something like two of those choices guaranteed and more if there’s room). Right now I’m thinking:

Friday: Regency corset (?)

Saturday: 18th c. hat trimming OR 18th c. quilting techniques OR makeup styles 1920s-40s

Sunday: 18th c. gown trimmings
