@Spookcat Great article about 1780’s dressing from a rather sad but well done movie: The Duchess.

Here’s the dress:

As a random side note Knowing that most women where literally sewn into their gowns I always think of Marilyn Monroe who it is said did the same thing but for rather different reasons. I suppose some things never really change!
There was a little girl,
            Who had a little curl,
Right in the middle of her forehead.
            When she was good,
            She was very good indeed,
But when she was bad she was horrid.

I've also always crushed on the costumes in Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries. It's 1920s/30s gorgeousness! I haven't seen the movie yet but I bet the costumes are aaaaamazing!!!  :)

The costumer seems to do a great job of staying with what would be available and fashionable in the era. No darts!

She always wears great hats- she rocks the cloche like no one else. I know others aren't big on this style but it's one of my favs! And she has wonderful coats/jackets. And pants! I know trousers were still a little fashion forward for woman but I LOVE it!! And gloves- oh the kid leather this chick rocks is beautiful. Ok, I may have a thing for gloves...but I digress.

Then it’s a good thing you’re not wearing it.

These hats are ok, it's the ones that cling to the head and don't flair out at least on the ends that aren't attractive

Yeah, me either.  She should wear hats until it grows out.

Grows out so she can do something different with it.  Short hair is fine.

So much better.  Is she wearing a hairpiece for the show?
