Hello, folks! Just in case anyone is interested, I’ve posted a blog on the journey behind my 18th century riding habit. I had so much fun that I couldn’t help but share!

The costume is this one, in case you’re wondering:

Took some pics of my completed mid-18th century riding habit today! I made everything except the shoes and the gloves (including a massive number of underthings to achieve the correct silhouette) over the course of nearly 4 months, and am pretty pleased with how it turned out!

Some ramblings under the cut:
