In summers, this baroque palace not only allows guests to come in costume but they light up the grounds with candles at night and end the evening with fireworks! It&#8217;s something I&#8217;d dreamed of seeing for years.<\/p>\n<p>I needed something to wear, and with the last-minute <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trystancraft.com\/costume\/2023\/09\/28\/18th-c-does-17th-c-masquerade-gown-in-progress\/\">failure of my initial Fete costume<\/a> plans, I had to scramble with stuff in my closet. Kendra offered the loan of a black-and-white t\u00eate de mouton style wig she&#8217;d made (described in her book on <a href=\"http:\/\/18thcenturyhair.com\/\">18th-century hair<\/a>). This inspired me to assemble a black-and-white costume from the black silk robe a l\u2019anglaise or a round gown that Sarah made for me for Carnevale (which I&#8217;ve worn with a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trystancraft.com\/costume\/2020\/12\/18\/venetian-carnevale-harlequin-gown\/\">harlequin<\/a> outfit and a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trystancraft.com\/costume\/2020\/12\/20\/venetian-carnevale-broken-hearted-gown\/\">broken-heart<\/a> outfit). I added the black-and-white damask petticoat from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trystancraft.com\/costume\/2012\/01\/09\/1560s-black-white-gown-inspired-by-a-portrait-of-isabella-de-medici\/\">1560s gown<\/a> I made ages ago &#8212; a round pleated petticoat is the same in any era! I had a feather and ribbon headpiece that I&#8217;d made for my first Fete Galant, so I added even more feathers to that. Some bling and accessories, and done. Had a great time too!<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-6612\"
