I had a brainstorm this morning, and it's either fabulous or horrid. Tell me! I have a Dracula's Ball on Saturday night, and I was thinking of making a pannier skirt of this ruffled fabric. I stuck my stays and panniers over top of my current Victorian gown (too lazy to remove current project, so just ignore it) and draped the fabric on top. Is this fabulous goth attire or awful? Remember, I'm not going for historical accuracy, I'm going for goth fabulousness.



And in the future, I can always use it as an under petticoat that won't be seen to further soften the pannier bones.

I have no idea if it's appropriate but I do vote for fabulous none the less.

I'm glad you like it! Since I'm not going for historical accuracy, but "that looks cool", I'm not worried about appropriate. Hell, at the goth club, a thong and pasties is appropriate (but not recommended in my opinion!) LOL!

I think you would blow them away with the thought and creativity that is going into this.
