Artist's Comments

The only other decent sketch of recent (sigh). This is a Russian aristocrat wearing a dress from around 1825-30. I got the design off a paper doll book (gotta love those). It was really informative... soo apparently the nobility's style changed most drastically around the time of Peter I the Great (early 18th century). Before Russians wore these enormous arabic-style things (which I prefer to the French style, actually).

Yeah, enjoy the history lesson you rotten kids! (in the words of my english teacher, heheh)

Drawn with a 0.5 pencil, touched up in PS (d-u-hhh)

w00t YEAH for your enjoyment :)

I'm in love. :heart:

I love those types of dresses but I can't help but think they'd be rather uncomfortable :<

I agree, I'd totally die during the first half-hour because of a punctured lung (due to my inappropriate wearing of a corset)
Thank you Hair dear :heart:
