Cosette really does provide such hilarity in terms of fashion because WE KNOW she canonically is ~THE MOST FASHIONABLE YOUNG LADY IN PARIS~ so LOGIC DICTATES that therefore she must be ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLY DRESSED by modern standards.

I really should draw her in these outrageous monstrosities more often.

OMG YES. My thoughts exactly! Which could lead to some very amazing scenarios imo. Ohhh and please do draw Cosette in crazy 1830s garb! :D
