So I'm stationed at the historical dress up at the museum, and I found this adorable dress while helping some girls get dressed. I remembered I have a king sized duvet cover I thrifted that's a very similar pinstripe fabric, but in a green very close to Paris green. Originally I was going to make a tea dress for my arsenic dress, but I might go with something like this instead. I might also try to tint it more yellow because I prefer Scheele's Green to Paris, but either way I'd be in for a horrible death.

Thursday, January 11.

Beauty, sensuality, art for art's sake.

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. But it was the most Victorian of times, that much is certain. There was also a lot going on during this period, not least the emergence of a dark, elaborate, and literary fashion—one that would leave its mark well beyond the close of the 19th century.

We have curated just a few of these opulent delights for you this Thursday, January 11, in the hope that you live romantically, sensually, and broodingly. Like the bon vivants you so deserve.

Hello I’m new!

Hi, I’m new here and I’m trying to figure things out! My name is Crow and I honestly have never used Tumblr before so this’ll be a learning experience for me as well. But on this blog I’m going to be talking about my life, showing off fits and showing off randomness. You never know what I might post xD.
