COSTUME-INSPIRED

Curiously Alice

 I sometimes find images like this on other blogs and sites referred to as vintage.  For me vintage means what it means in wine-speak: A harvest not so recent though not exactly ancient.  Any piece of clothing dating further back than pre-20th century belongs either in a museum or with folks specializing in restoration. The images above and below are reproductions of costumes from the 18th and 19th centuries by Etsy designers Curiously Alice and Romantic Threads.  They hark back to Marie Antoinette and Victoriana with some steampunk thrown in.  If you're a bride looking to add elements of the historical to her look these could be just what you're looking for . . .
