Helena, Your Regency Girl (BGC)
Simblreen 2022 - Treat 2
Helena (no last name that I could find) is the newest character from A Girl For All Time. As of yet they have not added any other outfits to her collection, but I like the simplicity of the dress her doll comes in.
*There is a slight weights issue with the armpits. It doesn’t effect the functionality of the dress, and is just a small appearance thing.
Swatches in @serindipitysims Historian Palette.

Gloves
1800-1810
Spain
Fashioned from fine Spanish kid, these gloves embody high fashion with a double historical twist. The lattice pattern expresses the geometry of the newly-resurrected design vocbulary of the classical period, while the figures at the top are taken from a series of etchings by Jacques Callot (1592-1635) entitled Varie Figure Gobbi (Various Hunchbacked Figures) ca. 1622., which William Konig (active ca. 1721) interpreted in prints. Callot was an ancestor of the famed Parisian couturieres, The Callot Sisters.

A doll version of Felicity’s best friend, Elizabeth, was released in 2005, along with her own book, Very Funny, Elizabeth! Immediately, there was controversy because in the classic books, Elizabeth had dark hair and eyes, and now, suddenly, the doll and book Elizabeth is blonde. The official reason was that they wanted to create more of a difference between Elizabeth and Felicity, but there was speculation that is was either done to match the actress in the movie, or that it was an act of Barbie-fication.
I’ve read some reviews of the dress lamenting the fact that it’s a very bright Barbie pink, but, the thing is.... pink was a very popular color in the 1770s:

So I’m not gonna knock it for being the wrong color. What DOES bug me, however is the shot silk. It’s made by having warp fibers of one color and weft fibers of another, and it creates that shimmery, color-changing effect. In all my years of looking at historical fashion online, I haven’t found any extant examples of a rococo-era dress made of shot silk. HOWEVER, after much scouring of Pinterest, I DID manage to find a few examples of portraits where the subject appears to be wearing shot silk:

So I’m not sure about the accuracy. It wasn’t super common but it wasn’t unheard of.
In the original Felicity books, it is sort of hinted at that Elizabeth’s family is wealthier than Felicity’s, but in the movie and Very Funny, Elizabeth! it’s made pretty explicit. The story revolved around Annabelle (UGH, Annabelle was the worst!) getting engaged to an English nobleman. Elizabeth wears her pink dress to the engagement party. So again, it makes sense for Elizabeth to be wearing a fine dress with her fancy accessories:

Giving a ten-year-old girl a pearl necklace and diamond earrings, the Coles had to have been loaded. Before the invention of cultured pearls, the only way to get pearls was for them to be formed naturally, and natural pearls are RARE!
The fan is a type of fan called a brisé fan, usually made out of ivory, horn, or shell, and they were more typical of the 19th century:

(ca. 1810-1820)
While they were more common later on, most 1770s fans were made of paper, which would probably make for a pretty flimsy toy, so I can see why they would have gone for the brisé style.

Dear fellow costumers, does anyone have tips on how to do a ca. 1800-1805-ish woman's hairstyle using medium-length hair that looks suitably 'period' and does not involve me fully committing to the bit by cutting my hair à la Titus or getting bangs (both of which would be great for the one evening I need the hairdo for, but... not so much thereafter)?
Looking for period hairdos (and people who did them) online, a lot of what I can find in terms of instructions either looks very 1810-onwards, so somewhat too late to match my gown, or is 'Bridgerton-themed' (which, to clarify, is exactly what I don't want my hair to look like, ideally).
A low bun would probably do the trick, but I'd love to know if anyone has any more original ideas, tricks, or tips. Those would be greatly appreciated!

Day 5: Beach 1960s
Marked by a radical social change, along with the beginning of wanting to look different from the norm, there was nothing that inspired me for a beach wedding than the fashion of the 60s.
Miniskirt, informality, individualism, artistic nature, this is what I wanted for Jeanne and Claudius, which is very funny to see him with long hair and sandals.
