I realize it isn’t technically FL’s era, but has anybody else looked into repro Victorian clothing? Personally, I love just about all clothing post-French Revolution and still grieve over the fact that I can’t wear a navy tail coat and buff breeches in public. I wondered just how early one could go without overstepping that fine and fuzzy line between clothing and costume and started looking at some of the Civil War Re-enactment suppliers. So I finally took the plunge and ordered a pair of trousers from the River Junction Trade Company. Pure wool in a herringbone/check with button fly, high waist, rear points and suspender buttons for $75. Got them today and I’m loving them. A little narrow in the leg for the 20th century, but I prefer them that way – think Daniel Plainview from ‘There Will Be Blood’.
