![]() ![]() It does heavily focus on women's clothing, and is more towards the fancy dress as opposed to day dress/casual wear. ![]() It's very British as it was written by a Brit. I just have KCLS's (King County Library System) copy. No, I don't have two copies, they are exactly the same. The book can also have this cover in the US. (Okay, with Beth Cady I have her lean back a bit into 1820 because I like Regency.) This is what I dress both Beth Cady and Josefina in: 1820s stuff. ![]() There's everything from underwear to accessories. Basically, the author went around looking at decades of clothing and drawing them in meticulous detail with notes and measurements, thus preserving them in a form not as easily lost as old clothes. This book is, to coin my favorite word for the past few weeks, AWESOME. 30 bucks and the British later, and tears go bye bye! I have my own copy. ![]() Anyways, have some book.Ĭostume in Detail 1730-1930 by Nancy Bradfield I saw it at Renfest, saw it was 35 bucks, twitched at the price, then got on Amazon and discovered the DAMN THING WAS OUT OF PRINT and was going for well around 120 bucks. Time Travel/Read a book.Saturday? Yeah, I got a schedule shift outta nowhere this week and my idea for Wed got busted. ![]()
