This fancy dress from our collection is presumably based on this ‚Pierrette‘ fashion plate from January 1884 ‚Der Bazar‘ that was also featured in ‚La Mode Illustrée‘ as ‚Folie‘ (Folly). #1880sfancydress #historyofdress #costumehistory #victorianfancydress #fancydressinspiration #cosprop

Cheerful stripes swing gracefully as a lady turns towards her friend in a plate from 1831 'La Mode', illustrating how our bodice might have looked before its skirt was cut off. www.thejohnbrightcollection.co.uk/costume/bodice-and-inner-sleeve-supports-2/#1830sfashion #1830sdress #costumehistory

Finished one of two matching dragons I’m embroidering onto the collar area of one of my Viking tunics!

The Waistcoats of Sir John Fleming Leicester (1762-1827) are beautiful examples of silk and embroidery with silk buttons. Sir John liked a beautiful waistcoat!

See the second post for a detail photo of the ca. 1680 ballet costume. Incredible use of metallic thread, strip, and paillettes (O's)

The pattens are really helping, people always talk about them raising you up to keep your clothes clean but honestly they make your feet so much warmer by stopping the cold coming through the thin leather soles, as well as keeping feet dry. #costumehistory #footwear #medieval

The silk facings for a red silk doublet. It was quite common for even the most expensive of clothes to be made in this way.
The lining was made of relatively cheap material -in this case red linen but often thin wool or canvas

Lace dated 1620 All Hallows, Museum, Honiton., Devon

Writing only a few years later Westcote noted that in Honiton there was an abundance of lace

Some of these are so timeless! Egtved Girl's cord skirt is my favorite though.

The #Byzantine clothes are v interesting (we see a model wearing recreation at end), though I don't think the hoodie with padded edge is v attractive. I love the appliqués, though. #CostumeHistory
