> Yep, Australia. Adelaide to be specific. In Adelaide we discovered 1% alcohol ginger beer, sold as a soft drink at that time in Australia. And we were overflown by a flock of budgies one afternoon.
I have that Nancy > Bradfield book too (although I think I got it off Amazon). It is lovely. It > totally makes me want to make Edwardian clothes (although I have nowhere to > wear them). The first edition, which I don't have, includes color images of some of the garments. The second edition (mine) has a drawings of a few more garments instead. There's also a paperback edition now. Interesting note: some of the same dresses appear in both Nancy Bradfield and Janet Arnold. When you find and compare each of these pairs you'll find that the proportions aren't the same. Then remember what is said about secondary sources and re-drawings. Even the best aren't perfect. -- Carolyn Kayta Barrows -- “The future is already here, it is just unevenly distributed.” -William Gibson -- _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list h-costume@mail.indra.com http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
