My friends and I went to the Fete Galante in the Palace of Versailles in France and we all made gowns to fit the period theme. What a surreal night, definitely one of my highlights of this crazy hobby.

Walking around on the fortress Oscarsborg,we got so many comments that we resembled a famous norwegian painting, "pikene på broen / girls on bridge" by Edvard Munch.

When a nice guide asked to photograph us, the stars aligned. I wonder if recreating paintings are my new hobby

Folklig 1700-talsdräkt med inspiration från Pehr Hilleströms tavla "Ett slotteröhl". Handsydd i (mestadels) handvävt tyg. Livstycketyget vävde jag själv, kjoltyget vävde @Sara_weaver och förkläde och fodertyg är handvävda loppistyger. Särktyget är faktiskt helt vanligt köpetyg.

On a historical picnic this day a couple of years back. 1740s black wool jacket after Janet Arnold. Annoyingly the under petticoat showed, otherwise this is one of my favourite 18th century outfits.
