| Big Bear Renaissance Faire, August 2010 |
Dress with corset under, worn atop a farthingale. Pull-throughs on sleeves. Two-piece hat with pearl-edged coif underneath and pleating inside.
Three-way adjustable corset with peplum over sheer blouse and full skirt with crinoline petticoat underneath for fullness.
The front of this dress has a hidden zipper behind the medallion and the top of the bodice is held onto the middle corset by velcro, so she can feed the small childe.

Fun Extra: many parts of this dress had a past life as this.
Court Dress that has been worn for characters of Anne Boleyn and Catherine Howard, both on whom are endearing because they were each beheaded for Treason.
Theatrical secret: The "Pearls" are actually drops of puffy paint. Just as nice looking, even from just a few feet away, but around a quarter of the cost and trouble of fabric with pearls sewn on.

This above picture does not advocate infant intoxication,
but it does not deny its SPECTACULAR AWESOMNESS, either!
