I like her style! Such lustre to this bottle green satin which is the backdrop to the whisper of black feathers that pattern the cloth. The house of Worth was famous for fabulous fabric and never was this more apparent than in this early #1890s gown. Sold via #KerryTaylorAuct #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡

This holiday season shop local & small businesses, secondhand & homemade. Consider consumable & experience gifts.

Donate instead of wasting money on ridiculous inflatable displays & outrageous holiday lights that prove you're an ahole who can afford the electric while others starve.
