I have a fashion print showing "historical" outfits for a fancy dress (costume) ball in the 1880s. It's hilarious from a costumer's viewpoint. Imagine Mary Queen of Scots with an 1880s shape. :-D Very funny.

I love that stuff. I have several of these cross-period historical prints, plus a couple of books about it. Some day I'll make one, and show up at a Gaskell in it, as tho it'd gotten the outfit from a long gone Victorian theatre company.
