It’s winter here in New Zealand, and cold and dark and windy and rainy. My local historical costuming friends and I decided to brighten up the shortest (ish) day of the year, and have a Georgian dinner.
I was given a beautiful nightgown last year with damage to the bodice, and I thought the skirt would make the perfect 18th century under-petticoat. Under-petticoats were shorter petticoats tied over the shift, and worn under the stays, pockets, and over-petticoats.
