Darcy's Leather Coat

Darcy's leather coat in PPZ is what made me rejoin Tumblr. The rest of my fandoms is what might keep me here.

Meg Giry costume designs, by Maria Bjørnson (1986)

Three of these are generic Corps de Ballet sketches more than specific for Meg Giry. But since she wears the same costumes, I’ve added them. Note how the Degas bodice was originally meant to go over the Slavegirl bodice.

The three latter are Meg Giry specific, with costumes only she wears. Missing: Meg’s Don Juan “Gypsy” costume, plus her Degas + shawl.

Pride and Prejudice cast, inspired by #StarringJohnCho bc wow imagine (Karen Gillan as Elizabeth definitely is not just because I’m still sad Selfie was cancelled.)

some of my favorite vintage dresses         ↳  green

[ceruleancynic]

these are gorgeous 

aaaaaand at least one of them was dyed with an arsenic compound

one of these days i’m gonna have to write a thing about arsenic dyes

[dandelionofthanatos]

Oh arsenic pigments. So very very very deadly.

If anyone who paints has ever wondered why you can only get “emerald green hue” when most other pricier pigments (like cadmium red and cobalt blue and such) are gettable as hue and in real form? it’s cos the pigment called “emerald green” was a copper acetoarsenite (please let me have spelled that right lololol) and thus…yeah. It isn’t stable, which meant that when it was used as a clothing dye or wallpaper ink (which it was, widely, until about 1900 or so–it was cheap to produce), it eventually made people in close proximity to it rrrrrrrrreal deceased.

This is why I am really careful at my job with maps that have bright green pigment remaining. Usually greens in that family react badly with the print ink of the map and like…Italy falls out of the page because it was green. But sometimes there is remaining paint and I have to be cautious. (See also: bright orange that might be mercury/cinnabar related, white that might have lead in it…) I’m not in any danger, no more so than I was at any given time at art college, but I do err on the side of caution. Because just SOME PIGMENTS MAN.

Anyway if you wrote a post about arsenic pigments I would read the heck out of it and be very appreciative :D

I’ve seen lots of reblogs and gotten several asks saying “these dresses would kill you.” Here ya go.

#these are all slytherin looks <– literally the first thought when I saw this, which was only cemented when I read the bit about the poisonous dyes.
