Costume Society of America: Williamsburg, Day 1

Guess who's on the road again?  I'm back on the east coast, this time for my first ever meeting of the Costume Society of America.  And it's in WILLIAMSBURG!

The historic trades tour was lead by the
knowledgeable and well-dressed apprentice tailor.

The master weaver at work on her 8-harness loom.

The wig makers' shop was fascinating and entertaining.
Like the swallows of Capestrano, all chintz and indienne
prints flock annually to the Governor's Mansion.
Scientific instruments in the Wythe house.
Check out the model solar system.
