Finally…an outfit that can be worn to the grocery store! Just think of all the canned goods that could be stuck underneath the ruff and inside the shoulders 🙂
It’s about time a designer thought about regular people.
Personally, I’m waiting for the gable hood to make a comeback. And the codpiece for the gents. 🙂
I’ve never understood the British fascination with fetish wear … latex, PVC, rubber, lycra, etc.
Is there any picture available of the rest of this outfit?
There is a link at the bottom of the original article (that I linked to above) that goes to this gallery:

Thanks, Lara. Silly me…didn’t go far enough into the blog 🙁
Wonder if this designer has been contacted by any of the cruise lines?
So Elizabethan dress for women is making a come back! What about for men?
Did you see Alex McQueen’s collection earlier this year? All a riff on royal wear over white tulle skirts. Gorgeous red velvet trimmed in silverwork in a variety of Tudor and Napoleonic motifs. They were amazing – but clearly not within my budget – nor would I ever have a social event worthy of any of the pieces.
