>From: "Chiara Francesca" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Heh ... Mardi >Gras beads and a cat toy ... don't ask. I dont think I can top that. Euphrosnia is wearing a 1470s houppeland in beige silk brocaded taffeta, the collar & cuffs are dark chocolate brown velvet. It needs sleeves, closures & a hem. Adonis is, all Adonises should be, nekkid as a jaybird with a womans 1890s chip straw hat embellished with ostrich feathers, orange taffeta ribbon & roses. The heads: Anne, Catherine & Charles are wearing: * Clara Eugenia's hat from the de Llano portrait. * A kiss me quick bonnet c1840s trimmed with parrot feathers. * A small butterfly hennin of gold silk shot with brass threads (which one might call cloth of brass). The brass wires to support the veil are too short & flimsy. This hat needs a bit of reworking. --cin Cynthia Barnes [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list h-costume@mail.indra.com http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list h-costume@mail.indra.com http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
