The next historically clothed event in my life is Titanic-themed and I have five busy weeks in front of me to prepare for it. I’m quite excited to see everyone’s clothes from a whole new era that is so different from the usual 19th century looks. I’ll share some of my progress on my emerging 1912 wardrobe soon, but for now here is a selection of inspirational dresses for your perusal!
In what order would you classify these dresses? You are welcome to create unique descriptions to describe the order you choose! I’ll let you comment and share my classification later (I want to avoid swaying anyone my way, you see).
1=Favorite! 2=Almost favorite 3=Beautiful, but not my style






1910 ball gown=1
1909 worth=3
1910 worth=2
I just prefer the straight neckline
But I love the shoulderpieces on all 3.
I also like the ‘belt’ as empire waist on the last one.
What kind of corset are you going to wear underneath it?
Thanks for the rating and your reasoning. 🙂
The corset I plan to wear for all things Titanic is my 1913 corset pictured at the bottom of this post: https://quinnmburgess.wordpress.com/2011/05/18/project-journal-womens-tailoring-part-x-1913-gallery/
