A Victorian Delight


Enjoy the show
What a fur!

At the First Presbyterian Church in Port Townsend, Washington

Strolling down the avenue
 
My friend, Val

Time to stroll the boardwalk

Love this carpet bag on Lady Victoria's arm

The one above and below were made from original sewing patterns
 

Beautiful colors

Even the guys stepping out in the show

Having fun just watching the show from a front row seat

Love the sleeves

There were so many pretty dresses and bags too

Flirty and Fun

Val in her red, loved it

Velvet delight
 
A beautiful show which was part of
the Port Townsend Victorian Festival
Definitely well done and worth having on the calendar again next year
Hope you enjoyed the show!

Some of the dresses look to be vintage, can you confirm which? Some where made from vintage patterns as well yes? What a great show!

What a delightful show. It reminded me of the Dickens Christmas that is in San Francisco every year. Maybe YOU could be in it next year.
