Old Fashioned Girls

Here I am, circa 1844.
And the photo below is my dear friend Tai, showing off her wasp waist in clothes that were quite fashionable in 1898. Yes, who knew that Spider Girl and Tai were such old-fashioned girls....

I'd heard that about you two, but I'd also read enough Henry Fielding to know that an awful lot went on under the crinolines and petticoats of yore.
