victoriana
May. 17th, 2011 01:33 amWell I need suit(s) for the upcoming weddings (one of my best friends, and my dads) I already have bought several waistcoats (vests to you yanks) inc a modern silk one in Lindsay tartan and an original 1830s Victorian silk embroidered one, and a 1900 tails suit which if the measurements are correct even though it's tailored it fits me perfect...we'll see - I think the Victorian waistcoat needs further tailoring maybe cos it was created for men wearing corsets judging by the sizes, unless it was some proto muscleman with an hourglass figure...
Yes I have a fetish for all things Victorian* and it's about to get finally satisfied...
* no, NOT Steampunk. Ugh.
