I did absolutely nothing so far on my chemise a la reine today! Instead, I looked at 1830's gowns and watched The Other Boleyn Girl (it was ok - a little boring- a few pretty gowns).

I found this cool 1830's undergarment that seems to have wire sleeve hoops to get that nice horizontal giant sleeve look (from the Metropolitan Museum)

I guess it tied to the corset's shoulder straps?


Then we have ingenious hair ornaments. Nice way to attach the fake hair! I love it!
