Victorian Types

Wearing Victorian looking clothes for a photo of my Leeds Bygone pub map in 2015.
In Leeds.
I have never worn this anywhere except for this photo.
Washing up before going out, Christmas 2011.

Why

No specific reason. A combination of having bought some costumes and then later putting some separate elements together.

Some 1890 fashions for men.
The rather excellent 2009 film, Sherlock Holmes.

Why

No specific reason. A combination of having bought some costumes and then later putting some separate elements together.

When

Some parts purchased March 2009. Other parts added at different times.

Elements

The waistcoat, dress, grey trousers and shirt are Victorian in style, but the rest is just mostly just current day clothing that has some old fashioned style.

Amount of Work

None.

Level of use

Seems to be quite Christmassy for some reason.

Notes

I think their clothes were much smarter than ours today.

Future use

Maybe in some form but not sure what for.
