When you or other ladies dress in historic clothes, do you wear modern undergarments? Or is that considered cheating?

Your use of vintage astrakhan is especially lovely.<br /><br />I have one question: what are the leather cases you and your friend are holding in the last picture? I am intrigued, but I am having a hard time locating something similar.

I'm interested in Regency clothing because I'm a Regency author and my mother just made me a wonderful Regency ballgown and pelisse for the Romantic Times convention in Kansas City (just got back). Then you mentioned Ft. Meigs and well, I know well where that is because I'm from the Toledo area and taught in a suburban school.<br /><br />It turned out well (you can see it on my blog here http://susanaellisauthor.wordpress.com/2013/05/02/the-dress-episode-3/) but my mother worked so hard I felt terribly guilty. I did some of the handwork before I got sick (right before leaving for the conference) and she had to finish it all herself. And I got a TON of compliments on it. She really outdid herself. And I had all the fun. SO not fair!<br /><br />But now that I know about your blog I'll keep tabs on what else you're up to. Even though I'm a better cook than seamstress!Barbara S.
