Get Ready With Me Napoleonic Court Edition

Just so people are aware it took me less than 10 minutes to get ready

What I find so interesting about the ensemble are the fabrics. Every natural fiber item I own wrinkles up a dickens but it looks so nice here, is it a matter of starching and ironing or does the cut and assembly contribute to the fabric looking so polished and unwrinkled?

All about using the right materials

I can see why Jane Austen heroines got in such a fluster. Very dashing. Interested to know what that American menswear guy would say about this silhouette… gorgeous pieces crafted with obvious love and devotion.

Absolutely breathtaking… and the raised eyebrow and look of mild disdain should be the required response to anyone who dares to criticise your impeccable dress sense, attention to detail, and desire to live exactly as you choose.

ah yes, the almost fake pocket...a curse of fashion for far too long

These are some of my favourite videos, to see how it all comes together. 🥰

Is there a different name for a chatelaine when a man uses it?

No, which is why I call it a Chatelaine. If it had another name I would have said so.

Right, can we just bring fashion from this era back please? I would much prefer to wear a beautiful dress every day than what I see some people wearing these days (or should I say not wearing in some cases).

No one is stopping you, be the change you want to see.
