April Love (in December...)

Hi there! I've finally got to take a pic I've been planning to take for more than a year. Someone pointed out for me in a Flickr comment that I should try and re-enact Arthur Huhges' April Love (1856). And here it is:



















I think the fabric is pretty similar and although I couldn't find this kind of gate as the one here I tried my best. I also made the shawl myself to have it as accurate as possible. As you may guess, I used my future crinoline dress here; in a few days I'll have it finished (I'll change the sleeves for other historical ones and add the decorations), so keep an eye for new pics!
