Last week I helped some friends outfit themselves for a Downton Abbey dinner party for this weekend. We used, and slightly modified, some of the early 1900's costumes we made in 2008 for the Cavendish Parade & Tea Party (the three photos below) when we celebrated the 100th anniversary of the publishing of Anne of Green Gables by L.M. Montgomery.
This blog displays the various period reproduction projects and events I am involved in. I have been collecting historic clothing, and making reproduction period clothing, since the summer I portrayed the Father of Confederation Andrew A. MacDonald for the 125th Anniversary celebrations of the birth of Canada. This blog began in 2010 to mark the 100th Anniversary of Lucy Maud Montgomery's marriage and our reproduction project creating the outfits in her wedding trousseau.

Winter 2015-2016
It's been a little quiet on the costuming front here this winter. However, the clothing is never out of mind as you can see in the photo below ( the yellow dress is a replica of "Anne of Green Gables" Puffed Sleeve Dress ). The collection is ever growing!
