You are not alone! So many of us in the historical costuming community have – for years! – been trying to add those styles of bygone days into our daily lives.
Jennifer gets us started in this episode with ideas on approaching this idea of #historybounding (a new fairly new term) for our modern wardrobes with encouragement that YES! it can be done with comfort and functionality.
