That amount of hand-sewing is a first for me, and hopefully a last. But it looks good and didn&#8217;t fall apart on first or second wearing. Huzzah!<\/p>\n<p>Because I wanted the effect of <a href=\"http:\/\/50.87.248.88\/~trystanc\/costume\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/blackfrancaise-fashionplate.jpg\">this period fashion plate<\/a> yet in a gothic fashion, I wore a somewhat cheesy white wig that I dressed up in gothic style with black lace, black silk roses, white rhinestone-dotted lilies, and a big black feathered bat. I wore white vintage gloves and scads of rhinestone jewelry as well. On the second wearing, I added black lipstick for more spooky touch along with a black lace mask for our masquerade evening.<\/p>\n<div class=\"tiled-gallery type-rectangular tiled-gallery-unresized\" data-original-width=\"640\" data-carousel-extra='null' itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageGallery\" > <div class=\"gallery-row\" style=\"width: 640px;
