What is the festival in Wales?

I think you would suit a lilac muslin dress in August...

It is the Victorian Festival in Llandrindod Wells and it is taking place the latter half of August. :)

Lilac muslin would be lovely, but pale purples would be considered half-mourning so I am trying to stay away from them. Having said that, the silk I ordered for my ballgown is sort of a grey-blue even though it shines a brighter blue so it could be considered half-mourning too.

I found a pretty 100% cotton seersucker plaid in tan and green for $1.99 a yard! I haven't bought it yet, but I'm going to.
