Oh! Pretties!

Normally, I'm not that into the civil war clothing. I like it but it's just not among my favorites. However, I think this will be a big exception. This dress is just gorgeous! The bright pink with the black lace trim? It looks like it's in good condition too. However, I do not have well over $400 to spend on a dress for "study purposes".

...reminds me...I should go take the regency gowns out and take a look at them...

Oh you are right. I'm not really into the 1860s but I like that frock! Helps that it is later 1860s of course...

True. :-) I'm coping the pictures to save on my computer for later research purposes..

I know how you feel about mid-century clothing. Me, too. But on the one hand that looks like late '60's elliptical, so perhaps take it a step further and just use the color scheme on early bustle? Or that color scheme would be amazing on a francais (I think :)).

Oh that on a 1870's bustle? Evil! Giving me ideas... :-D
