Hats and bonnets and caps are so important in period costume - probably even more than the clothes :)MrsC (Maryanne)https://www.blogger.com/profile/14440723067459232998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5024572182015008955.post-60463681043619605692012-01-12T18:04:46.396-08:002012-01-12T18:04:46.396-08:00Wow, it's so nice to know that I am doing thin...Wow, it's so nice to know that I am doing things right! I am going through exactly the same process with The Crucible. Even though it's a high school production, I wanted fantastic costuming. Well, we are making some, renting some, and borrowing some. And the stuff we make is exactly as you say - very accurate LOOKING, but quick and dirty on the inside.

I'm still me - I cannot abide anachronisms unless I have no choice and the closer I can get to perfection the happier I am :)MrsC (Maryanne)https://www.blogger.com/profile/14440723067459232998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5024572182015008955.post-47524951973301416942012-01-10T15:37:58.018-08:002012-01-10T15:37:58.018-08:00Totally agree with the time thing!

Youv'e also pointed out to me many times that it's just a different beast than personal costuming - it needs to look big and bold, and convey a message. <br /><br />I've actually been super impressed about how historically accurate you have made this show. I thought a lot more corners would be cut to facilitate speedy changes etc.The Dreamstresshttp://thedreamstress.com/noreply@blogger.com
