Vanity
So, when and if I ever get around to making 18th century clothes, do they all have to be ankle length? I've been looking mostly at extant stuff, so I have no idea how long it would be on somebody.
I'm vain, and I've always preferred floor-length to make me look longer than wider. Ok, so I know if I add the bum roll thingies and maybe pocket hoops and all of that I'll be plenty wide, but y'know what I mean?
In other news, 29 lbs of tropical weight wool arrived today. Woo! The cranberry is a little too stretchy to be the 100% that it's advertised as, and the houndstooth is a bit too modern. So I have to think about those and what to do with them.
