@kateStrasdin @V_and_A @FalmouthUni Must have taken forever. So much detail

Very much enjoying the prospect of teaching second year costume students all about c16th and c17th dress today, a gallop through time and styles with plenty of excuses to look at wonders such as the 1620s embroidered waistcoat @V_and_A @FalmouthUni

@megansmolenyak My guidance counselor suggested it. Most useful class I ever took

@HtFiction Inspired by a photo 💕

@kateStrasdin @V_and_A Proof that Victorian women loved color.

Just a little zap of colour to brighten your day, a not too gentle reminder that #19thcentury women were not unsmiling and sepia hued but vibrant colourful beings. What a shot of colour this early #1870s dress provides @V_and_A #fashionhistory

Please join me tonight as I'll be going live with Amy Johnson Crow on her Facebook and Youtube to discuss "Family Photo Detective." You can find her Facebook here: buff.ly/3Pq7j4k And her YouTube here: buff.ly/3CJBiwQ

@MarianBWood Huge undertaking

@knottycate Ah. The clutter was pretty standard.

@PhotoDetective Wow, that feels like a very unusual background for a photo of that age! I wonder if they wanted to show off a couple of their favourite possessions as well as having a record of their wedding day.

There are so many distracting details in this wedding picture taken indoors. What jumps out to you? I love the shades on the windows.
