What is a typical outfit like for you?
"My morning gown is light,pastel,and flowing. i like that one best because i can move around more freely. i also have to wair: stockins,petticoats,bloomers,a shift,bonnet,and sometimes a shawl. i do not have to wair a corset.. YET! my evening gown is tight,dark,and stiff. it is  hard to move around in that dress."
