Costume Gallery

Some costumes I've made over the past few years! Some better, some worse. Some more serious, some just for fun. I've tried to categorize them chronologically (by era. . .not in the order they were made. . .) although some things fall into "multi-era" or "inspired by" categories. Since most of these have been blogged about on my other blog, Romantic History, most photo captions are click-able and will take you directly to the post for more details and/or photos! This list is incomplete so I hope to add more as time allows.

Hello! Stumbled upon your website while looking for examples of Victorian baby/toddler boy clothing. Such lovely pictures here, exactly what I was looking for! However, I am unable to access the links to most pictures due to not having blogger permission. :(
