Day 20 of #victorianfebruary is #art. This is "Evening at Home" by Sir Edward John Poynter. This beautiful piece of art features more portraits in the background! And I really relate to a woman staying at home and reading with a cat curled up next to her. #historicalfashion #historicalcostume

Day 19 of #victorianfebruary is Romantic. What is more romantic than a wedding? This is the wedding dress the Princess Alexandra of Denmark wore when she married The future Kimg Edward VII of England. This was the first wedding dress of a British Royal to be photographed. #historicalfashion #historicalcostume #victorian

Wedding Dress | c. 1882 • • • This wedding dress has always been a favorite of mine. It’s exceptionally and elaborately trimmed in embroidery, lace, flounces and beading without being (too) ostentatious. • • • #VictorianFebruary Day 6: Trim • • • #whattheywore #historicalfashion #fashion #fashiondesign #fashionhistory #historyoffashion #vintagefashion #art #vintage #historicfashion #defunctfashion #historicalfashion #costume #costumedesign #couture #costumehistory #victorianfebruary #victorian #victorianfashion #wedding #weddingdress #weddinggown #bustle #kyotocostumeinstitute

Day 4 of #victorianfebruary is "over". I absolutely love this 1885-89 evening cape from The Met. Not only is the outside stunning but that fabric on the inside is to die for! I jist love that little hidden pop of color. #historicalfashion #historicalcostume #victorian
