Quickly slapped on wig, lipstick, scarf and hat to document it this much at least! It's way too warm in my living room for this. I may have done multiple more little dances in addition to this one here!

Forgive me posting the link before I've finished the video, but I am just so tickled by Abby Cox in her "I'm just gonna say it" era. "Before you go, Abby, why would you say suffragists were criminals? They fought for our right to vote. Yeah, they did. And breaking the law was an important part of that process. You can be both a hero for human rights and a criminal. They usually go hand in hand."

Hat pins! Sass! History! Outfits!

#TIL what "Rompers" are.

I'm old enough to remember the 1960's kid's TV show "Romper Room," but never knew what the name referred to, until I came across this 1920 #FamilyPhoto of my Uncle Everett Fischer and his twin brother John Lewis in their "Rompers," or playclothes.

Close-up on the two boys... 1920 photo of two toddlers wearing rounded caps and big, puffy playclothes. Their tall white socks are easily visible above their old-fashioned playshoes. In the background, there are lots of trees, with few leaves on them. It is likely early Spring or early Autumn in northern Illinois, where the photo was taken.

In the days before Pampers, Velcro, stain removers, colorfast clothing, and disposable diapers... Mom needed to be able to change their diapers easily and bleach dirty clothes. The solution was loose-fitting "Rompers" for playtime clothing.

A little #HistoricalCostuming interlude! Here's this screenshot of the latest Prior Attire video, where Izabela is showing off different 1830s clothes.
But look! Look! It's just applied bias strips on a bodice and it looks so cute and fun and interesting, oh heck! I don't think I've ever seen this up close before.

A close up of the bodice and the bust region of a plaid or tartan dress in a summer to autumn 1830s style. It has a cool overlapping chevron effect decoration at the very front, emphasising the conical shape of the bodice. Narrow strips of fabric meet in a V at the centre front, there's nine of the overlapping rows of them and it's a very 3D and interesting little design. A lot of effect from very little fabric. Quite neat and pretty. Izabela, who is wearing the bodice, is gesturing with her hands and moving aside a white fichu to show off the decoration. A closed caption reads: "This kind of decoration was very, very popular."

I made this outfit a while ago and it's still one of my favorites. It was mostly inspired by Edwardian fashion. There was a ton of hand-stitching done on the blouse between the insertion lace, buttonholes, and finishing seams, so it took a total of 55 hours to make.

Blouse and skirt made and patterned by me

Look, it's unlikely the illustrator meant them all to look like a bunch of lesbians, but that's what I see anyway.
(Scanned and reconstructed from a fashion magazine spread from early 1900s, Femina.)

A beautifully illustrated scene of seven women gathered around a piano and settees, to sing and listen to the singing. They are all dressed to the nines in slinky and gracefully pooling early 1900s fashion, the suggested shapes of their bodies seen through the painstakingly depicted folds, swags and drapes of painted fabric. Apart from one, the obvious gothic seductress who is either in fashionable black or being very naughty and doing a soiree while in mourning, they are all in pale or saturated rosy golds, pinks and whites. Their hair is all done up in artful dos gathered atop their heads in curls. A woman in white is playing the piano, there is a harp in the background, and the image is titled "Toilettes de Soirée" which alludes to this being an example of party dresses.

Ladies, gentlemen and persons with gender beyond the ken of cis minds: I am firmly back on my bullshit, browsing Victorian sewing manuals.
Sure, I already found what I wanted, but I also have a dozen other tabs open!

A scan of a fold of an old, yellowed book. On its pages there is first a kind of gloomy and shitty illustration of two ladies engaged in some bicycling, one on a bike and the other just looking dapper. They are wearing a pair of very full trousers and a full but only calf length skirt. Their sleeves are ridiculously large. The page declares the instructions for ladies' bicycle trousers and skirt, and provides a pretty vague set of instructions how to draft them, as well as an illustrated diagram of the same. There is not nearly enough detail to glean much off it unless you've been reading these before, or are used to pattern drafting by eye.

Browsing more old pattern catalogues to soothe my brain wrinkles. In today's edition of "this was one of the most expensive pages to print in this entire thing" I present to you: "Say, do you like bees? "

A scan of a Victorian fashion plate from the Delineator, May 1897. It depicts "Costumes for early summer" and while the one on the left is a rather predictable affair of red poppies or carnations on pink or cream fabric, with lace and rosettes... The one on the right is a striking and somewhat honeybee-coloured arrangement of black frills, lace, bows and ribbons on a yellow dotted fabric. The skirts are both similar shapes, sort of a cone falling gracefully from the hips, with high little puffs of sleeve at the shoulder, form-fitting the rest of the way down to the wrist. The waists are tucked in and decorated. The bee lady also has an umbrella with yellow and black stripes alternating. Her hat is velvet with yellow ribbon and black ostrich plumes. It's kind of fantastic, kind of horrible, and also kind of fantastic despite it. The faces on illustration are sort of vaguely smug and self-assured, which is a nice change to soulless dolls.

Whatever madness possessed the illustrator has abated and a sense of style has returned to the fashion magazine! These are actually pretty nice and balanced on the whole!
It's been fun seeing the sleeve shape change, the balloon of sleeve has been moving up and up.

A fashion plate illustration from The Delineator for "Street Toilettes" which means the slightly more practical attire you'd wear to go out to do your shopping and assorted errands, from November 1896. It strikes the modern eye as striking, but not bizarre. The two women are depicted in floor length dresses with wide conical voluminous hems, very narrow waists with bodices fitted to them, leg of mutton sleeves with the volume mostly at the top in a sort of balloon, and fitted from narrow wrist to snugly just past the elbow. They are blue with dark blue and white details, looking to be velvet and lace on silk, the other fine tan or camel wool, with black soutache decoration on the jacket only. Their hats are like small dinner plates with a bunch of fluffy ostrich plume mounds atop them. The women have sort of doll-like faces, one with an expression of head empty no thoughts, the one in the camel with a little bit more sass.

Am indulging in perusing an old pattern catalogue slash women's magazine slash fashion periodical from 1896, and I've seen this particular fashion plate before, but every time... Every time I look at it and wonder at the fact that quite a few people thought this was the cutting edge and important enough for colour print...

A truly befuddling colour print fashion plate or illustration from the August edition of The Delineator from 1896, for "Visiting Toilettes" which meant clothes women would wear to visit friends and the houses of other people in general. These two women in the illustration, are bedecked in bizarre conical shapes, with very wide hemmed straight out A-shaped skirts, with puffed sleeves wider than the width of their torsos, with hats pointing in strange directions and a profusion of bows and lace upon their person. The colours are also horrible, blue with orange, salmon with olive green and purple, and it's funny how this would have been very expensive to do, and they chose to publish this? The effect is garish and inelegant, and the vacuous expressions on the women's faces are reminiscent of dolls, which may have been intentional. There are so many bows, none of them in good places lines-wise. If you had never seen a human and someone pointed these two out to you, you'd think: "That's a fucking weirdly shaped organism for sure." The effect is not helped by the illustrator having drawn them with minuscule hands, the faces and hands being the only recognisable human parts and neither very realistic.

Catalogue: "Waterproof bias velveteen skirt binding. Protected by a brush edge, the most serviceable and sightly binding ever produced; cut curved to fit the skirt, the brush edge is invisible and will not wear the most delicate shoes."

I, upon connecting the dots between the trend for silk, snakeskin and suede shoes, and how the really heavy skirts with their crinoline supports must have previously scratched up so many shoes: "THAT'S why the brush binding??"

Brace yourselves for a reproduction postcard from 1915 or so, a cornucopia of an increasing number of "Wait, what?" the longer you look at it. It has chickens and the barest fucking tangential connection to the holiday of Easter and that's wonderful. Gaze upon it:

An illustrated postcard. At first glance it's just a fabulous smiling lady in a form fitting and green early 1900s walking dress and the Finnish text for "Happy Easter", but looking at it multiple things unfold. The lady is wearing a truly immense hat with a rough dozen of hatched chicks, a very large broken egg and daffodils upon it. The egg-shell looks to accommodate at least a goose, if not an ostrich, and the hat is approximately three times the width of her shoulders! She is wearing a dashing shawl and muff which sport the feathers, tails and stuffed heads of dead, or possibly still alive, roosters. Running behind her, with an anthropomorphic expression of either grief, desire or anguish, or all three, is a chicken on a leash, with three eggs behind her. Is she plopping out eggs in distress as she strives to catch up with her stolen young, or the two possibly zombie roosters? Is she smitten, possibly with the lady? In any case the lady herself looks to be possessed of poise, utter confidence and joy in this tableaux of avian perplexity, without a care in the world, laughing, a flock of chicks balancing upon her head! Probably both of their dads upon her neck, their mother her pet, callous and fabulous!
