Someone just tagged one of my tweedy selfies with "dark academia is problematic" and I'm just dying over here, especially since I associate my look more with riding horses than archiving at the Mütter Museum.

Anyway, "vintage style, not vintage values."

This is my mood after I saw the spoilers of "Hazbin Hotel Season 2", and also after I realized that nothing more came out about "The Cuphead Show". 🤣😭

A Vintage Halloween Experiment

Maybe because I play cinema-inspired dress up all year as a hobby, recently I’ve been drawn to less specific costumes for Halloween festivities.

This spooky-season look was a mix up of inspirations from the first two decades of the 20th century. I’m not much of a pinterest girly, but I’ve had some adorable (context-less) 1910s and 1920s costumes of bats, moths, and butterflies saved for years and have always wanted to make one of my own. I love the practicality of pairing a simple tunic or one-piece with decorative wings. Lucky me, I had this old spiderweb tablecloth that was just the right size! The next time I break out this costume, I’ll definitely make little bat ears to match!

As for the hair and makeup, the Italian silent-film star aesthetic is still very much my ideal, so I loosely based my hair and makeup on Pina Menichelli. Since the eras of Menichelli and the costume inspiration roughly align, I think they paired pretty well!

Of course I had to complicate matters for myself and experiment with lighting to capture the costume. What that resulted in was a handful of photos that have a distinctly 1980s vibe… Definitely not what I was going for, but fun photos to take nonetheless.

Happy Halloween all! If you dress up, what are you more inclined towards: specific people/characters/topical gags or more general Halloweenie costumes?

One Dress a Day Challenge

October: Silver Redux

Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries (s1 e6, "Ruddy Gore") / Essie Davis as Phryne Fisher

This stunning dress is referred to as the "Silver Lady" by @phrynefishersfrocks, who did a terrific writeup of the whole outfit with lots of attention to the coat and headpiece. For this post, however, I'm focusing on the dress itself. The material is just amazing! I've included a closeup to show the texture, embroidery, and beadwork.

Phryne seems to favor this sort of asymmetrical neckline. Compare with the purple dress from "Murder on the Ballarat Train," which has a mirror image of the construction.

By the way, here's what Miss S wore in the equivalent episode ("The Haunted Theatre").

[phrynefishersfrocks]

The first ensemble of "Murder and Mozzarella" (Season 3, Episode 3) features Phryne's classic car coat on top of her printed silk chiffon blouse and classic navy wide-leg pants.

Miss Fisher's usual travel outfit, she wears a flattering red and white silk chiffon blouse patterned with outlines of stacked gingko leaves. Cut in the same style as many of her other shirts, it has a v-shaped neckline and a long tie that loops around the neck and either fastens together or hangs loose at the front. Underneath is a white square-neck camisole with decorative scallop edging along the top.

She pairs this with her navy wide-leg pants and dark heels, as well as her linen hat and matching travel coat. Known as the "ode to detectives" by Marion Boyce, the costume designer, the linen coat is both practical and dramatic, suitable for weathering the elements while traveling or exploring. It has a line of brown and cream horn buttons to fasten the coat, and a wide collar with rounded points. This coat is the most reused item of clothing in the series, with twenty separate appearances across all three seasons (twice in 1x02, 1x03, 1x04, 1x06, 1x08, 1x09, twice in 1x13, 2x01, 2x04, 2x06, 2x07, 2x10, 2x12, here in 3x03, twice in 3x04 and twice in 3x08).

Phryne accessorizes with her linen bucket hat, often seen accompanying her coat (twice in 1x02, 1x04, 1x06, 1x08, 1x09, 1x13, 2x02, 2x03, 2x04, 2x06, 2x07, 2x10, 2x12, and here in 3x03 as well), and a pair of frosted white earrings with silver caps (bottom left of the costume exhibition photo). As suitable for an adventurous lady of the '20s, she also wears linen crocheted driving gloves with leather accents, and a large cream handbag.

I went rogue with today's Mab's Drawlloween Club drawing.

Instead of following the theme, "alien," (although you could argue that the plot is...out of this world) I decided to create some artwork for Ithaqa.

Ithaqa is a 1920s Lovecraftian horror comic series that I illustrate, written by Michael Watson.

You can read the first two issues for FREE if you sign up for their email list.

Ithaqa will be on Kickstarter towards the end of October, please sign up here to be notified on launch day.

I needed Crowley in a flapper dress. Now I feel like I need to do the whole outfit…

A continuation of the ineffable wives through the centuries shoes editions. This time, the 1920s! I feel like Crowley would be able to convince Aziraphale to dance. 💃
