Old gobelin curtains maid, or old gobelin curtains lady?

This JSK is from 2002, and despite JetJ's penchant for very long lengths at the time, I was somehow still not expecting it to be so long! I had a bit of trouble trying to get the lower skirt volume I wanted, actually; because the heavy fabric demands support throughout, and I don't own any true poofy petticoats that are ankle length.

The Best of Debussy

The Best of Achille-Claude Debussy (22 August 1862 -- 25 March 1918) Pianist: Pascal Rogé Along with Maurice Ravel, Debussy was one of the most prominent figures associated with Impressionist music, though he himself intensely disliked the term when applied to his compositions. In France, he was made Chevalier of the Legion of Honour in 1903. Debussy was among the most influential composers of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and his use of non-traditional scales and chromaticism influenced many composers who followed. Debussy's music is noted for its sensory content and frequent eschewing of tonality. The French literary style of his period was known as Symbolism, and this movement directly inspired Debussy both as a composer and as an active cultural participant.
