Look! Really, really tiny pictures!

I blatantly stole these off our Order of the Golden Lion web site, so you can see the back of my head. They say they're going to put up more pictures soon; I have my doubts. But, again, other people's pictures is all you get until I and my costume are both at home with a camera and time on our hands to actually take pictures.

I'm in the top left and bottom right ones. Be very impressed by the sight of the back of my head. Well, okay, in the top one you can kind of see my gown. A little. It's green. Very green. Must stop this fixation with green. Ack- I'm wearing a green shirt today! Noooooo...

And apropos of absolutely nothing (well, okay, pictures...), here are a couple of pictures of my effigy-ish corset and 18thc stays. Why? Well, I don't take pics of my underwear very often (heh), so I thought I'd share. And everybody loves a picture. 'Specially when I, you know, never take them. They're for a paper I'm writing, actually. On corsets. Gotta love when you get to choose your own topic in classes!

Teh Effigy corset- made it last summer...I think?



My first pair of stays, made in summer 06...*wrinkles nose* Looking at these makes me want to make a new pair...

Interesting, though. Hah, I can't believe I'm still wearing that red petticoat...it was part of the first outfit I ever made, four and a half years ago (I've been sewing for four and a half years?! Why am I not better at this?!) and it's all hand sewn, cos I didn't have a machine yet! And it makes me want to sew. Waah! Why can't the semester be over already!? *pouts* I wants a new pair of stays! And a lot of other things, mainly 18th century...

The dress looks lovely, from what I can see!
Once you have some free time,like maybe over Christmas break, you should nab a friend and get some pictures in your gown. :)
