In which we are atmospheric
In which the point of hide-and-go-seek is being found
In which the coolest doors are often the ones that refuse to open, at least by conventional means
In which I am trying not to be freaked out by a bee that has just landed on the flower Kali insisted I examine
In which I am short
In which there are ladies
In which we see the state of Kali's hair after the ball
In which you can see more of the outfit construction (click here for a larger one with more details: http://pics.livejournal.com/rm/pic/000cctff). Sidenote: the shirt is the most comfortable thing I have ever, ever, ever owned and fits in with like 20 different obsessions of mine and I may have to have a lot more of them.
All of my clothing, btw, was done by Satin Shadow Designs.
Photos, as before, by Kali, except where they are of her.

Date: 2006-10-17 05:23 am (UTC)The not really being able to move one's neck thing is a bit odd, and getting used to the way breaches fit (tight and baggy in exactly the opposite places as you'd expect) were both odd. But all in all, it felt extremely comfortable for me. I'm going to have to get daywear next.

(While Regency ladies didn't always bother to color-coordinate, the one I have on hand is apple-green with pink paint and flowers, and would really hurt with that dress.)

Date: 2006-10-18 05:42 am (UTC)I've also found my regency clothes to be extremely comfortable. Part of that is that they're tailor-made to fit me, and part is the all-natural materials, which breathe so well. Is your shirt linen?

Date: 2006-10-18 05:45 am (UTC)My shirt is linen, and it's true, custom tailoring is just the greatest thing ever (I have other things that have been made especially for me, but are marginally more modern.)
This was our first full weekend event -- in the past we've just done the ball, but this time we added a gaming day with the stroll in the park, and it went very well. I t hink we had a bit over 20 people at that (compared with about 53 for the ball).
