It’s been a while since I’ve gotten gussied up in my 18th century gear! With a gorgeous snowy morning as my backdrop, I pulled out my red chintz Italian gown and styled it for a wintertime scene. I wore my dark red petticoat, a 1970s silk Dior scarf as a fichu, a black silk wired ribbon and pair of long black gloves. I powdered my hair and arranged two feathers in it. I went a little more dramatic with makeup (please tell me I don’t look like a badger?) and I felt so beautiful posing for these images!

You look elegant and poised. Love this so much. Sometimes I wish we could go back in time and have elegant dinner parties and dances.

Thank you 😊 hoping to attend one such gathering this spring! The events are few and far between but there are actually a lot of people that do historic costuming and/or re-enacting!
