Princess Ida

Saturday night we went to see the Gilbert and Sullivan Society's production of Princess Ida as a costumed group. There were sixteen of us, many of whom were dressed for the period between 1890 and 1925.



Afterward we went out for dinner and to celebrate one of our number's birthday.





I meant to get better pictures of my dress, but I didn't. Not at all. I did manage to get a picture of the back of the dress since I fixed it, but I still need to tighten up the shoulders a bit because they had a tendency to slide off the shoulder down when I sit.

So here are the same old pictures of the front:




And here are the new pictures:


I also got one showing how the waist fastens.



I was reasonably pleased with how my hair turned out, and it can be seen in the new pictures. Hair is not my strong point.
