Versailles - june 3d 2007 18th century picnic near the castle, with Heileen, De-Ravenne, Mademoiselle Fi and a guest star : Kendra We were not allowed past the gates in costume, and resigned not to visit, even in mundane clothing, due to a bad combination of luggage and local regulations. But the picnic was wonderful, the place was quiet, excpet for little girls wanting to konw more about françaises... |

Folles - Musée Galliéra - february 22d 2008 Heileen and I visited the 1920s exhibit in flapper dresses. I can only recommend the exhibit and it's catalog, gorgeous stuff, even if you don't speak French. Mor pictures from Heileen over here. |

| Bustles
in Paris II - Musée Jaquemart-André - february 24th 2008 We chose Natural Form as our theme this year, which Heileen impersonated perfectly. Lisotchka came in a stunning red 1878 dress made by Phil, and I ventured into reform dress with a uncorsetted 1881 Avant-Garde gown. A prefect afternoon in a wonderful museum, the museum people were charming, and the café was exceptionally yummy. More pictures over here, by Lisotchka and Heileen. |
