#Repost @colonialwmsburg ・・・ *That new outfit feeling*

This time last year, we invited historic clothing fanatics to join us for “Colonial Fashion Days,” and while we weren’t able to host this special event this year, we’re looking forward to Spring fashion in the Historic Area and hosting this multi-day celebration and examination of sartorial subjects.

In the meantime, click the link in our bio, go to “Itineraries” and check out our fashionistas itinerary to plan a trip any time of the year based on this interest, and catch up on blogs and videos, including those shared as part of our virtual Costume Design Center open house.

The team starts with research and, in the case of George’s coat, finish with a lot of hand embroidery. On the blog today, learn about the original coat that informed this design and how the adaptation was created, made possible by the generous support of our donors. .

#Repost @karaanner ・・・ Somehow time has flown and it’s been a few months since this picture was taken, my absolute hands down favorite picture from Colonial Williamsburg. This one picture out of any that were taken of myself in costume just stands out to me as the simplest yet most perfect of the bunch. I want to fall back into it, back in time, back in someplace different, even if it’s for just a day. #costuming #historicalcostume #historicaldress #handmade #costumer #18thcenturyfashion #18thcenturydress #colonialdress https://instagr.am/p/CFSCbDmA1SV/

A woman’s heart is a deep ocean of secrets. But now you know there was a man named Jack Dawson and that he saved me… in every way that a person can be saved. I don’t even have a picture of him. He exists now… only in my memory. TITANIC (1997)

Today’s aesthetic: really enthusiastic historians talking about people who’ve been dead for centuries with disconcerting familiarity, like they personally knew the historical figure in question and possibly still owe them money.
