> Really? What period? I'd have to dig up the reference, but the robe and particularly the hair (yes, the butt-hair) were based on 15th-century Romanian burial costume.
I'm pretty sure the book of the costumes said they were based on Kabuki costume rather than anything European. That said Lucy's wedding dress I'm sure was based on a portrait in 20,000 Years of Fashion and is early-mid 17thC. I just saw it again recently online.... I also found a similar painting which shows it was a fashion of some particular place and time. And the book said it was based on something else. http://www.bildindex.de/bilder/mi06985b12a.jpg And the similar portrait: http://www.bildindex.de/bilder/mi06985b11a.jpg Micahela de Bruce http://glittersweet.com _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list [email protected] http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
