   Beautifully planned and executed answering all those questions-so many layers!
   Thanks much.

   I have never before so appreciated being able to dress myself! And I do love the fichu (scarf) — I have several and wear them often. Lovely video — many thanks for sharing.

   That is so interesting. I always wondered long it takes to get dressed in the morning or through out the day. Thanks for sharing.

   charming little film, very like my short theatrical entertainment “Getting Dressed With Jane”, except I have to put everything on layer by layer on stage without a “Cassandra” to help! thanks for sharing

    I’ve always wondered just how an apron-front dress worked. Now I know! Thank you.

    This emphasizes the use of ties, not buttons, on the gowns, as seen in the majority of museum pieces. Those bodice rippers where the gentleman has dozens of tiny buttons to deal with are not well researched!

    Forgive me, I’d comment on the relevant post if I were able, but it’s several years old and the comments are closed. One of the other commenters on the skeleton suit post requested information as to how a child wearing such a getup would use the facilities and you replied, but the underclothing pictured in the post doesn’t appear to have similar openings. Is there something I’m missing?
