Want to give me a gift?

The sewing projects and general Victorian and 18th Century posts are under different journal now! Please see [info]madamemodiste for my latest sewing project.

I have bookmarked a ton of websites dealing with Victorian and Edwardian clothing. The following links will bring you to vintage clothing websites, sites for famous period movie costumes with detailed shots of the gowns, and more.

Wickedness is a myth invented by good people to account for the curious attraction of others.
-Oscar Wilde

"I firmly believe that every human being has a duty to make himself as attractive as possible," Erté wrote in his 1975 autobiography Things I Remember. "Not many of us are born beautiful; that is why I have always attached so much importance to clothes. Clothes are a kind of alchemy; they can transform human beings into things of beauty or ugliness."

I am married to the love of my life, Jason. We still enjoy clubbing in our "old" age, and can be found out and about most weeks. I'm happy to say the bad drama is all behind me, and I'm the happiest I've ever been.
