Hi, this is not very important question but i want to ask your opinion since you know so much about poto costumes. So im making a slave girl costume but since i prefer us bodices and uk rope skirts, do you think they would look good together?

I’m tempted to say it would give you a result reminding of the Canadian versions. Albeit darker and/or “crunchier” velvet is used in the Canadian bodices compared to the US ones, they still have some of the same “feel”, while the rope skirts are more in the vein of the UK/European ones:

And yes, the Canadian ones definitely look good. So go for it!

After working a tad on that Toronto Degas photo, it almost looks like a photography from the 1920s.
