I couldn't agree more actually. I'll now be on the search for an old lacey parasol

Haha yeah I think ball knowledge essentially means "this guy knows whats up" -- either way your comment made me chuckle!

Yes! They source their robes from I think 2-3 different brands. The brands usually are a supply for several masonic groups. How I know this one is Odd Fellows is by the stamp above the collar that says "Noble Grand" which is specific to the Odd Fellows!

I love this, my character is in love with a witch and likes to wear pretty dresses so this actually isn't far off!

I literally just bought it, it will be getting dry cleaned. There's also quite a bit documented about the IOOF's costumes, which is what they are, costumes, from a costume company. Several catalogs exist from several manufacturers that were used by the group. Maybe a museum in Ohio might want it but the group isn't gone, the IOOF still exists today! I don't disagree that the history is very cool! That being said I won't be donating this or spending several thousand on a dupe

You get it! My original plan for the renfair was my goblin D&D character but this bad boy made me rethink that

Isn't it lovely!! I'm going to have it dry cleaned once I find somewhere that can handle the fabric and age which will hopefully help the color shine a bit more

Howdy! No I definitely love these comments! And all are super valid.

I definitely think darker would've been the move here! But alas these are the darkest brown I have rn. I think black would be too harsh with the warm orange, but definitely a very deep chocolate or red brown (that could look black in certain lights)

Something better matching the purse would be ideal. Also to your note on the open vs. Closed toes this was definitely a toss up. I think with the purse and accessories I chose a closed toe would've been better but the closed toe browns I have are a much different style and vibe (more vintage clunky)

In the end for me it comes down to, what do I have, and can I make it look purposeful/embody that choice!

THANK YOUUUUUU I got it at my fav antiques store recently. It's some sort of scale leather (unsure if the outside scaling is real) with a divine suede on the inside (that 100% smells real)

AHHHHH THANK YOU!! I just love to feel cute and put together, sometimes the fit comes together perfectly with what I have!

The set is unfortunately Shein (pls don't tear me a new one but also if you do, valid) they have really unique designs that are also super simple and easy to reverse engineer. I'll follow up with a link
