endless night

Ball gown, 1889, House of Worth, the Met, Silk

Does anyone who has access to Chinese websites could help me find a pattern for a warring states period hanfu? I would really appreciate it <3 <3 <3

I’m jealous of ancient Chinese not having a set age when to do the imperial exams :( nowadays you don’t pass a grade once and you’re a failure, a waste and actually should kys

I suggest that I, as someone who doesn’t even live on the continent America, should get to also vote in American elections cause their outcome affect me too damn hard

Made a separate account for the silly stuff so people who are here for historical fashion don’t get scared 💗

No but seriously. Normalize finding love in your 40's. Normalize discovering and chasing new dreams in your 30's. Normalize finding yourself and your purpose in your 50's. Life doesn't end at 25. Let's stop acting like it does.
