Ackermann’s Repository, Morning Dress, March 1810.
Feedback time! Do y’all like it when I do these zoomed shots in addition to the main plate? As a costumer, I find things like this incredibly valuable since I frequently miss the details- especially when I zoom by something on Tumblr. I can’t do it on all of my fashion plates since many aren’t high enough quality, but on these where I can zoom and still keep clarity, do you like it when I include the detail images?

I MUST HAVE THEM BOTH!

Love the pelisse and bonnet of the girl on the right! And note the length of the skirts- have fun keeping those clean!
La Belle Assemblee, Parisian Morning Dress, January 1821.
Another coffee filter dress! These were all the rage in the early 1820s :)
(Seriously though- can you imagine the WORK that went into making and applying all those little ruffles?)
Lady’s Magazine, Morning Dress, October 1812.
Oh what a sweet little bonnet and lovely pelisse! This looks like a simple enough outfit to make- perhaps it should to into my to-make queue!

Wow! Look at all those accessories!
