I got my grades back, which means I can officially say goodbye to the semester, and I've gotten a lot of new followers lately, so it seems like a great day to talk about one of my most favorite historical garments of all time: Countess Greffulhe’s tea gown.

This week's #FridayFrills is this 1960s yellow silk cocktail dress embroidered with glass beads and rhinestones in the shape of flowers or stars. And it has a nice little bow in front 😉. It was sold online for only $202. #YellowMay #Fashionhistory

When I’m not clambering around medieval churches, I embroider strange things. Here’s one I just finished of the White Horse at Uffington - a prehistoric landmark cared for by the National Trust. I spent so much time here as a child and it’s always loomed large in my imagination.

Disgruntled little girl in party dress who is not up for partying, in room with too much furniture. And a dog, feeling similarly. In 1878. Wonderful painting by Mary Cassatt, whose day is today.
