Hoop Skirts & History Lessons...
We attended the Lake Tahoe Historical Society's presentation of Paulette Grune's "Victorian Ladies, Their Manners and Morals". |
Even the men in the audience enjoyed the show. |
We learned of the dangers of the hoop skirt (fire, snagging on to moving buggies) and the elegant way to sit in one. |

Me too, me too always wish I was in the victorian times! Beautiful!
Paulette brought to life what it was like to be a woman in Victorian Civil War. I loved it. But, I can't imagine actually having to wear the clothes of that time. I think I'd have been playing Annie Oakley somewhere out west instead.
