The Museum of Costume in Bath FINALLY has some information up about their Jane Austen: Film and Fashion exhibit. With annoyingly small images, but still. It’s better than nothing!
Europe Photos (and a Little FAQ Action)
Okay, I’ve finally posted my costume-related Europe photos, complete with random commentary. Check ’em out.
I’ve also created a FAQ, which will probably be really boring to regular readers of this site but will hopefully answer some of the usual questions I get via email.
Parisian Fabric
Okay, so I’m slow about posting my pictures from my trip, but I thought I’d better photograph my fabric before I put it away into the stash! This is the pseudo-18th c. indienne cotton print that I picked up in Paris, which shall become a 1780s robe a l’anglaise with en fourreau back — one of these days.
