So, thinking ahead to my costuming goals for this year & the HSF challenges...
- #2: Innovation - due Sat 1 Feb. I'm really struggling with this one...it's not that there weren't innovative things happening in the time periods I'm interested in, but more that I am stuck for ideas. And I'm running out of time...
- #3: Pink - due Sat 15 Feb. This one is much easier to thing about! I have some lovely blush pink cotton lawn that is anxious to become a Chemise a la Reine. I've done some research - while white seems pretty popular for a Chemise dress, they are seen in both artwork and fashion plates to come in other colours. So, I think this is a full speed ahead!
- #4: Under it All –
due Sat 1 March. Also an easy pick...I need to finish my own set of Regency stays. I have a mock up set half completed, and have set them aside for nearly a year. I can do this!
- #5: Bodice - due Sat 15 March. I have a couple of options: regency spencer jacket, or a short gown. Both would help with future events this summer...
- #6: Fairytale – due Tue 1 April. I don't really want to work on a princess-style outfit. My point of inspiration right now is Black Forest region and my research is looking into Bavarian fashion and style from 1820s to 1850s.
