Prior Attire Romantic weekend 2019

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

A slightly different video today - a bit on our recent event, the 1820-38 soiree ( and ot only).
I have been in love with the wacky era for the last fewy years and last winter i finally booked the venue , sorted out the logistics and organised the event. It was a semi private, invitation only affair ( ony 46 spaces), so it sold out fast - and we had people from France, Netherlands, Finland and Canada coming, as well as from all over the UK :-)
It was a lot of work ( for me as both an organiser and costume provider for several people, but also for all the others as they worked on their costumes too!) - but it was worth it, and i think we will be doing it again next year :-)
for more footage from a different perspective, check out the vlogs by Lee-am!

    I am at a weird place where I absolutely adore historical fashion and my goal is to eventually create a number of everyday 1830s-40s outfits to wear, but I am also very much into punk/rock subcultures so also wish to dress like a punk. I feel it may be a bit disorienting for people if I show up in frock coat and top hat one day and leather jacket and blue hair the next

    This was awesome to watch. The French dandy was lovely to watch dancing. The Dutch man's mustache was perfect. Also a playground is never to be passed by while wearing period clothing. When I am at period wars, I love to wear a kirtle and swing. My friends and I always do this the first night. It's tradition.

Thank you for sharing all aspects of the event - it was very interesting to see everything from sewing to food to dancing to riding. The dresses and gentlemens attire was stunning, as is typical for you! I think I share some of the same introvert characteristics - I can do 'social' but definitely need quiet time to recover afterwards. Cheers to you from over here in the States!
