Edwardian Gowns: not playing with a full collage


My creation
Originally uploaded by cleery

Last night I spent quite awhile going between Flickr and Big Huge Labs making my first collage, which sadly turned out to have a blank spot. I wanted to highlight one of my obsessions, beautiful Edwardian dresses. Since the real things are too pricey for me, I keep a 3 ring binder of these so that I can drink them in whenever I want to. My favorites seem to come from 1912.

If you love these too, check out Ebay, which sometimes has gems, or look at these beauties:
