Costumers all tend to have a specific era or genre that appeals to us aesthetically, which is fine, but sometimes we get too focused and fail to appreciate other eras or genres that might suit our body type, our facial features, or even just challenge us to think outside the box a little bit. So, I'm opening the floor for suggestions: Give me one costume you'd want me to wear, and why. Picture links appreciated. :)

I think you'd look really nice in a zone gown or a robe a l'Anglaise (I'm missing some accents there), especially one like the first one on that page. With big 18th-century hair and some sort of ridiculous hat. Because the finishing touch to any historical costume is a ridiculous hat.

I do have an 18th c hat with green and pink bows. It's a straw hat so it's not too ridiculous. :-) ...and I do have that matching mint green silk....hmmm...

Hmm, do 'future' genres count? You could definitely pull off Senator Amidala's travel gown in Episode 2 (the best part of that movie was seeing the outfits Padme wore). See here (sorry, my html isn't that good): http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Image:PadmefullRefugee.jpg

I was thinking of making that one. I have the picnic gown and the peacock gown. I love the headdress to that outfit..
