Also, my trip to Joanns totally struck out. No wide red ribbon and no more velvet ribbon, so I have nothing available to add to the skirts. Which is a bummer. So I'm not sure when I'll be able to put anything there, but I really hope I find something eventually (it just won't be in time for a photoshoot within the next week).
I still have to do the hat. I think I have a straw base that may work, so I'm going to play around with it a bit today and give it a go, and if that fails, I'll make one out of buckram.
Tomorrow, though, my friend Emily and I are going to get dressed up and drive up to the pass to go play in the snow in costume. I'm really excited about it! I'm planning to wear my skating bustle, so I don't have to worry about hems dragging. And I'm going to try to get some fun footage recorded/take pretty pictures while we're there.
And then next week, I'm going to start working on my 1890's teagown. It will hopefully be a fairly close reproduction to the antique one I have in my collection, except out of light blue wool instead of tan linen. I'm using the Truly Victorian teagown pattern as a base, but altering it to have a yoke neckline and 1890s sleeves. I'm hoping it goes together relatively easily!
