Plan with me: House of Worth's Rainbow Dress - First costume plan of 2020!
2020 is here and I am SO excited for my first costume of the year - and it's not a cosplay! *shock* *horror* *screams*
It is the Rainbow Dress by the House of Worth, circa 1860 - was it ever made? No idea - that adds to the mystery. But it is a GORGEOUS sketch and a wonderful fancy dress costume!
I am trying something new and appeasing my inner history loving teenage self who would oogle over victorian dress and lament that we don't dress like that anymore (whilst wearing shorts and t-shirt pjs).
