Enjoyed this month's 'At Home' with @19cdandtreframed.bsky.social on the theme of cross-dressing. Particularly intrigued by professional male impersonator Annie Hindle and her string of bigamous, same sex marriages across the States, carried out under a male pseudonym - her husband's name.

And best of all it has a maker’s label - J MacNeille of Ayr. Founded by John MacNeille at 4 High Street, Ayr, Ayrshire, by 1830. By 1845 the business also has leather warehouse on Old Bridge Street, which by 1849 had became main business. MacNeille was later elected Provost of Ayr in 1864.

There is a hint of the reptilian to this mid #1870s dress. The angled pleating and position of the decorative buttons lends it an air of a watchful crocodile in shaded greens, the tongue of pale train skirting its hem, Mme Depret Paris @metcostume.bsky.social
