mothwingI have a thing for beautiful women in beautiful dresses on sepia pictures. But then, who doesn't.
It's sad that they only have the names of the Caucasian women on these pictures. I wouldn't fancy finding myself called "young Caucasian-05" on a popular vintage picture site. The site is fittingly called Old Pictures and can be found here. The pictures below were taken in the US, also in the last century, some of them in the nineteenth century.
Ok. Off to take Sev to the vet, he needs a shot. Wish me luck.

Women's clothes "of the peacock variety" are absolutely the most unpractical ever. Still are.
I don't think that men's clothes are that impracticle, that'S against the so-called male nature. Even though all these skin-tight white jeans or baggy pants can't be that practical...
Anyway, as a curious fact of dress history: some men in England of the 1820s wore jackets which included a corset, they were called Butterfly Dandies. ;)
