 The Victorian embellishments book is finally well on its way through the

 Pre-orders (and many more images of the exhibition) are now at

 costs! I'll also be posting a Kickstarter, hopefully tomorrow, with the

 If you pre-order from my site, it will be $30 plus shipping until mid-May;
 if you go through Kickstarter there will be many options with pledges of
 $50 or more including a book as well as other goodies.
 
 Thanks for all the interest!

Just looked at your photos, could you please confirm that the exhibit and book 
deal exclusively with women's garments? (My husband is interested in men's 
Victorian fashion, as a foundation for his Steampunk interests, for himself.)

Hi everyone--

I am subscribed to h-cost but have not been able to actually participate or 
even lurk for a long time, so when Marjorie wrote to the museum at which the 
exhibition I curated, Embellishments: Constructing Victorian Detail, is 
currently showing I confess I had a total DOH!! moment. I should have let you 
all know about it when it first opened! But the show is up through March 23 and 
as she wrote on my behalf, there will, at some point this year, be a book 
related to the project. The book will be a blend of coffee table book and 
how-to guide for making the kinds of embellishments on view. I will be posting 
a link later this week to an overview of the exhibition, not just the one 
rotating dress currently on the official museum web site. But in the meantime, 
here are some teasers, I hope they post. And if any of you are in the Durham, 
NH vicinity, I hope you come see the show!

Best wishes to all of you,
