Bath Museum of Costume - Part Two

Still at the Museum of Costume, in Bath~

REGENCY ROOM

IMG_0756

I really like the sleeve and bodice detailing on this!

Even More Dress Pics (not just Regency though)


IMG_0757

And the rows of cording on this one.

IMG_0759

Not super fond of the bodice on the dress on the right, but I really like that fabric texture.

IMG_0758

This is the bodice, since I figured I should show it if I’m going to say I don’t like it.

IMG_0764

Aaaah the shiny, love it.

IMG_0767

And the hem on this! I just want to make Regency dresses now.

IMG_0774

Also this hem 8D;;

IMG_0772

That hem is more fancy because it’s from a later time.

IMG_0773

I like the sleeve detailing though.

Goodbye Regency Room!
My hands were so itching to just use my gramma’s wheelchair to smash through the glass and explore those bins. That was cruel of them I think, look bins of things you’re probably interested in! Juuuuust out of reach. Thanks museum.

Anyway.

Look, ribbon.
It was in front of a 1830s dress, which I thought was hideous, and thus there are no pics.

IMG_0780

I’m not overly fond of the 1840s, but I do like some of the detailings as we get into the 1850s.

IMG_0786

Like I’ve seen this style in awesome plaids and stripes, all matched gorgeously through that pleating.

IMG_0791

1876, actually not keen on this silhouette.  

IMG_0798

I like the explosion of details that come with the 1880s

IMG_0799

Totally want that collar.

IMG_0805

I don’t necessarily want that hem, but it’s interesting.

IMG_0810

And we leave off with the 1900s.
