Hehe I'm down with that, unfortunately being on a thrift store budget means it can take a loooong time to assemble certain costumes... and I appear to have a black thumb with sewing machines, I can hand stitch beautifully but I have better things to do lol Most of the people I had do costumes back in the day are to busy to work for what I could pay them.
What I actually need to do do is go hit thrift stores Savanna and Charlestown, both of which we should be by this summer. They've got more historical reenactment stuff around there.
lol Vaguely related story-
I seem to have acquired a reputation among my friends as being somewhat of an expert on Victorian and Edwardian era medicine. One of these friends is an ER nurse who one day presented me with a large paper bag and a wild eyed grin.
"You're going to love these."
The bag contained a dozen boxes of 'medicinal' teas, which, had been passed on from a friend who had correctly identified them as not something any human with a working brain should ingest.
Each box had a list of side effects which varied, but always included 'intestinal bleeding' and 'death', and usually seizures, heart failure, internal bleeding....
My friends sat around laughing as I read the ingredients, followed by 'that will kill you, that will probably kill you, that won't kill you but you'll wish it did..."
These were new, by the way, from some natural food store in the area.
I doubt the concentrations they listed were valid, and I'm fairly sure it was lacking in many if not all 'vital' ingredients, lack of regulation allows manufacturers to flat out lie about what is in natural medicine products. I could smell some of them through the plastic, though, and instinct immediately kicked in and said 'hey, that thing? Yeah, don't eat that. You gonna have a bad time'

I advise that you run the tea through a particle accelerator before ingesting or better yet launch them into the sun and have some jelly dodgers with your normal Earl Gray.
Good luck with the great costume hunt. But be careful there's nothing more dangerous than a wounded bustier. Β Β
