Happy New Year to all! This is an interesting dress from the Bath Museum collection. Known to some as "The Champagne Dress".
Wow! That's a real showstopper. She and the dress must have been all the hype back then. I would love to go back to that time for an hour or so just to see what the conversations were like and if anything was similar to today.
Belated Happy New Year from me too! I've just come back from my usual New Year's trip to Vienna. I spent New Year's Eve with my friends at their place, with lots of food and drink, the next day we all slept in then went for a long walk from the outskirts of the city back to where they live, and yesterday and today we went to a couple of exhibitions and did our usual thrift shopping, including some shops we've never been to or haven't been to for ages - despite the cold, biting wind and snowfall .
