Pics!









No this is NOT the clothing I bought yesterday! It's for the play we're working on.
Nice, huh? Sort of an untraceable older era, between the 30s and the 50s. What do you think?? [about what time-period it looks like]

  2. It looks mid-to late 30's to me. Just before shoulder pads of the 40's and maybe a bit after puffed sleeves? The shoes are classic! :D

  3. It looks like the outfits from Anne of Green Gables...the movie that I incidentally watched tonight. I like it a lot! I've always loved historical fashions...but I will admit women's historical fashions often look extremely uncomfortable. :)

  4. Hmmm. Maybe late 30's, early 40's?

  6. Thanks for the comments! :)

    tinydancer, it's a play written by a few of my friends [the infamous Dallan and Eva, haha] and myself. Entitled "Two Tophats and a Spy". Great fun, I shall post more info later :)

    Gwyn, oh, haha, as to the shoes, I was wondering if I should get some white or tan ones for the performance--what say?

    Thanks Evergreena!

    Danzibar, I love that movie!!!! [Haven't watched it in way too lng, but still...] Yes, some historical fashions are the very dickens to wear. I imagine corsets must have been rather ghastly. A lot of medieval and peasant-Colonial stuff is pretty comfortable once you get use to it.

    Olive Tree, yes, that's what I was thinking. We're trying to get hold of some trench-coats and fedoras for the boys, to give the proper 30's feel.
    I just had a bad thought, tho! I'm supposed to be swing-dancing in this get-up! Which can involve some fancy floor-work [where the guy and girl spin, then the girl drops to the floor and spins on her hip]. Great.
    And Thank You!!! :) :)

  8. Oh! Thank you Lauren Anne!!! I'm glad to know I'm not alone, the A vs E-ers seem mostly Arwen fans. Did my last comment finally get published, I wonder.
    thanks for letting me know! :)
