Oh Cosmo, what a treasure trove you found! I love the blue velvet dress here tinyurl.com/22up6e This may encite me to do something in velvet now. There's quite a few that have that robe that comes around under the bust. Love thos. Looks like I like the early 1800s. |

Navy is my favourite color to wear because it is complimentary to my skin |

It was hard for me to visualize a gown in velvet until this image was presented here. Cosmo suggested that as a material for my ballgown and I couldn't quite wrap my imagination around it.
Now it's clear how STUNNING it could be. Wow. Imagine that in an emerald green, or a ruby....

I cannot believe that you didn't just instantly know that if I said it would be a good idea that it would be fantastic!  I tell you that I do my research. I also have impeccable taste. A flawless sense of style. |

A flawless sense of style. This sounds very familiar, like one of those characters in Sense & Sensibility. "I noticed a lack of satin!" ;D |

Was it in S&S too? |

No, you're right. That's what happens when you try and type something off the top of your head, and two cats are fighting because they're hungry.
Hello Mrs. Elton! You do have wonderful tastes in clothing.
