Re: What's your dressmakers dummy wearing today?
Euprosnia has on the lining of my next 1848-50 ballgown as I mark the
waist & shoulder seams. It's going to be coral with some sort of braid
across the bosom a la militaire. This gown's for the Danse Libre
performance at the end of the month.

Do come & see us if you have a chance.
Adonis is wearing a black silk gilet (c 1350s), it goes under a
pourpoint) and a large c 1890s woman's hat. His sense of fashion is
somewhat lacking.
Anne, Kathryn & Charles (the 3 heads) are wearing Isabel of Austria's
velvet & pearl hat (c 1590), a "kiss-me-quick" bonnet adorned with a
spray of green parrot feathers (c 1840s) and a tall red velvet hennin,
veil and a bee pin (c 1470).
