Wrap your eyeballs around this ever so demure #1890s silk, not only the colour of the dress but the pixelated stylised florals that decorate the fabric. Is it purple enough though? #augustaauctions #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡

When it isn’t enough to have just the dress but you need the matching coat as well then early #1960s Balenciaga it is. A swathe of mint green swoops around the body from top to toe, oh so simple but of course not at all @phxart.bsky.social #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡

I had to alter a dress so I pulled out the 80-year-old sewing machine I inherited from my mother. It is a beast - even the bobbins are metal - and will never break in a way that cannot be fixed. It tells the story of the last 100 years of the American economy and society.

Looks very nice, comfy yet professional.
