So I started looking specifically for period examples of women wearing a fichu to get ideas for what I will do and thought to share with you all.
The first one being my favorite so far :) I really like the style with the ruffled edge.

To fichu or not to fichu
So I did my first fitting with the polonaise the other night and aside from being ecstatic about how it is coming along, I noted that it sits very low in the chest, right on the edge of my stays and while I was hoping i would not have to wear a fichu with this dress, as the extra layer will only add to the heat that day, I feel certain that I will now. Not to mention for those that don't know me, I really should hide the massive tattoo across my shoulders, if I want to look period accurate :)

I like your tattoo, but the fichu look is pretty. I like how the one second from the bottom sits a little lower - that might be more comfortable in the heat, not having it up at your neck.
ReplyDeleteYes I was thinking something like that too, and funny you should choose the second from the bottom one as that has been my single inspiration piece :)
