Happy Halloween!!

A little late now, unless you are one of those I-put-Halloween-costumes-together-at-the-last-minute types, but this writer has ideas for how to perfect a Georgiana Cavendish costume from a Marie Antoinette prototype. I am considering something like this for next year. This year I am Katherine Howard, Henry VIII’s fifth wife. She was 15 or thereabouts when she married Henry and, yes, was beheaded for adultery with Thomas Culpepper; she’s a little more obscure and my costume is not nearly elaborate enough for an Anne Boleyn ensemble. I will put up some photos when I get them uploaded. Post photos of your historical Halloween costumes here and tell us who you were!
