Ladies Fashion

Let's face it: getting around in a crinoline is hard enough, without accounting for demons, dinosaurs, and sky-pirates. The bustle keeps you from sitting down, and even with the collapsible versions that came on the market in the 1880s was still a very unnatural profile. I'm leaning towards a fashion aesthetic which is very late for our period, sometime in the 1890s.

All this art comes from Marcus Rowland's fine Forgotten Futures CD Gallery.
