Those earrings are so ace. And just like everything I have acquired directly from someone else, be they a dealer or a friend, every time I wear them I think of the person I got them from. Yet another reason why second hand is ace
I have never seen drawn thread work in silk! I've done it in linen, and even the little design I did took forever.
Just wanted to comment on the petticoat - somewhere in my books I have a pattern similar to that, only it's a skirt not a petticoat, and it's Edwardian. Always interesting how fashion evolves!
This paletot is a real beauty! And asyou say: the collar! Reminds me of the beautiful illustrations of Hugo Pratt in his Corto Maltese bande dessinée. Just wonderful!
Love the clothes and your shared knowledge of them. Also noticed the earings, LOVE them. Will now head to Part 2.
