I have an appointment with the admissions director of FIDM next Wednesday...that's when I find out whether I get in the school or not. Eeep! :O (I'm pretty sure I'm going to get in, but there's always a chance I won't...)
Speaking of FIDM...I posted this on Facebook and totally forgot to post it here! (
My design project for admissions... )

*lol* So true. And then you read about that infamous Caro Lamb who actually dampened her muslin dresses so they clung to her body. *facepalms* Trollop.
I think that's why I always prefer Regency romances to Victorian and whatever. They're so much prettier and less cumbersome and yeah, wonderfully wicked. :p Even if their shoes were totally inadequate, poor buggers.
I'm quite fascinated by these deliberate inaccuracies, though. How intriguing ...
The Liberty gown ... have you seen/read about that? In Meredith Duran's Written On Your Skin --- coincidentally one of my top three romance novels ever --- the heroine puts on a Liberty gown which is supposed to be in the Aesthetic style. And apparently it's very very scandalous in its appearance of freedom but apparently is all tied and laced cunningly ( ... )

Oh! I made it about halfway through season 1 of X-Files before I got busy with other things (FIDM stuff, etc.) It's so funny to me how there was a distinct change in quality after episode 13...it's like the writers suddenly went "Wait, this doesn't have to be hokey! We can actually make this impressive if we want!" Still impatiently waiting for the Smoking Man to make a reappearance after his little cameo in the pilot. WHERE ARE YOU, SMOKING MAN?!
