#or is it a tea gown?

[spacerangersam]

I think it's kinda funny that all the ghosts are like, wearing their Sunday best even when it makes no sense. Humphrey and Fanny both died in like, the middle of the night, right? Besties, why aren't you in your pyjamas??? I kind of get Humphrey being dressed since Sophie's 'reading group' were in the manor and it likely wasnt that late, but Fanny died at like, 3 in the morning. Why was she fully dressed, hair done up and styled, at 3 in the morning? Put on your jim-jams and go to bed! And who let Kitty die without even taking her shoes off first? I get it if there wasn't time to change her into her bedclothes, but you could've done that at least. If I died in bed fully dressed With Shoes On I would be so mad.

a very different vibe from my last couple posts, but i'm versatile, the sort of girl you can take to a pumpkin patch and a graveyard.*

this was inspired by late victorian tea gowns and is made entirely from three different cotton fabrics (two quilting cotton prints and a black cotton sateen) with ruffled black lace used as trim.

it has no shaping below the yoke, save for the belt. despite being a "casual" garment by victorian standards it is worn over a corset and petticoat.

*this graveyard is on the grounds of an abandoned church, these were taken on the undeveloped outskirts of it, not actually in it.
