Waistcoat

c.1620-1625

England

The high waistline and narrow sleeves, open at the front seam, are characteristic of women's waistcoats of the early 1620s. The blackwork embroidery is of exquisite quality and is worked in a continuous pattern throughout the body of the garment. A group of interlocking curling stems enhanced with a garden of roses, rosebuds, peapods, oak leaves, acorns, pansy and pomegranates, with wasps, butterflies and birds, make up the embroidery design. The extremely fine speckling stitches create the shaded effect of a woodblock print. This style of blackwork is typical of the early seventeenth-century and thought to have been inspired by the designs from woodblock prints that the embroiderers were using. The waistcoat is unlined and embellished with an insertion of bobbin lace in black and white linen at the back of each sleeve, and a edging of bobbin lace in the same colours.

Italian personification of wit (ingegno).

Wit is essential, because it allows one to pierce things, bypassing the obvious and superficial—passing through it, violating that very surface, damaging it—and getting to the very essence.

I read this AO3, It was about modern-day Steve, who got into a car accident and was sent to the ‘80s, and Eddie and his friends found him. there was one moment that I vividly remember and it was Steve thinking about how he thought the ‘80s would be more colourful and not so brown and boring. As well as he spends a good amount of time trying to get back to his time because he thinks people would be really worried, when his phone starts to work again he sees articles of his disappearance and realizes no one really cared. I don't remember if it was finished or not.
